Introduction
The Wisconsin Historical Society utilized a Historic Preservation grant-in-aid from the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior to hire LJM Architects, Inc., an architectural and historic preservation consulting firm based in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, to conduct an intensive survey of architecturally and historically significant resources within the boundaries of the Village of Whitefish Bay. The major objective of the project was to identify structures and districts of architectural or historical significance that are potentially eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. The survey was executed during the period from October 2010 to June 2011 by Principal Investigators Jennifer L. Lehrke and Robert Short, with assistance by Katie Derksen and Karen Lindow, all of LJM Architects, Inc. and data entry by Tom Barg, Emily Caflisch, Erica Freding, Zachary Freding, and Briana VanDriest. It consisted of several major work elements: completing a reconnaissance survey; conducting research; evaluating resources, and preparing an intensive survey report. The boundaries of the survey were delineated as shown on the Survey Boundaries Map. The survey identified nearly 2,900 resources of architectural and historical interest as well as twelve potential historic districts and two potential complexes. Although the resources include a variety of public buildings such as schools, churches, and commercial buildings, the majority of the surveyed resources are single-family dwellings from the 1920s to the 1950s. The purpose of this survey report was not to write a definitive history of the Village of Whitefish Bay, but rather to provide an overview of the history of the Village and its buildings in relation to a series of themes or study units, to provide basic information on the resources that were identified during the reconnaissance survey, and can be used in future planning decisions and increasing public awareness of the history and architecture of the community. This architectural and historical intensive report and the associated work elements mentioned above are kept at the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society in Madison; and a copy of the report is kept at the Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Whitefish Bay Public Library.

Survey Methodology
Introduction The Architectural and Historical Intensive Survey was conducted in the Village of Whitefish Bay over a period of several months, beginning in October of 2010 and concluding in June of 2011. The architectural firm of LJM Architects, Inc. of Sheboygan, Wisconsin executed the survey. The principal investigator, Jennifer L. Lehrke, with assistant Robert Short, conducted the reconnaissance survey fieldwork and performed historical research. Jennifer L. Lehrke coauthored and edited the majority of the intensive survey report and generally oversaw the survey. Robert Short prepared the survey maps and co-authored the report, and Katie Derksen and Karen Lindow provided administrative support. Building permit research and data entry was performed by Tom Barg, Emily Caflisch, Erica Freding, Zachary Freding and Briana VanDriest. The Village of Whitefish Bay Architectural and Historical Survey consisted of four major work tasks: (1) reconnaissance survey, (2) architectural and historical research, (3) evaluation of significant resources for inclusion in the intensive survey report, and (4) preparation and presentation of the intensive survey report. Reconnaissance Survey In October and November 2010, a windshield survey of the Village of Whitefish Bay was conducted that resulted in the identification of nearly 2,900 sites of architectural and historical interest. During this time, a field survey form of each site was prepared which included the location, name, style, and other key pieces of information and a digital photograph was taken. The portions of the Village within the delineated boundary area as described in Chapter 1 were surveyed street-by-street and structure-by-structure for resources of architectural and historical significance. Approximately 60 previously surveyed properties were updated. Information contained in the Wisconsin Historic Preservation Database (WHPD), particularly the address, was confirmed and corrected if needed, and field observations were recorded if any alterations, additions, or demolition work had been done to the structure since last surveyed. A new digital photograph of each property was taken to be added to the WHPD. There were several sites that were previously surveyed that lacked initial integrity and we did not believe to be survey worthy. Therefore, we did not update those sites. In addition to updating the 60 previously surveyed sites, hundreds of new properties of interest were observed and documented. Information such as address, name, and architectural style were noted, and field observations were recorded which were later entered into the WHPD. A digital 7

photograph of each property was also taken for inclusion in the WHPD. In areas where a potential historic district was identified, all buildings within the potential district boundaries were observed and documented. In addition, all of the existing and newly surveyed properties were identified by photo code on maps which are included in the Survey Results Chapter. Architectural and Historical Research Architectural and historical research of the Village of Whitefish Bay was conducted by the principal and assistant investigators throughout the course of the project in an effort to provide a historical context to evaluate resources. Of great importance were items located at the Whitefish Bay Public Library including, but not limited to, their extensive collection of research on local history and buildings conducted by Mimi Bird. Secondary information was also found at the Village of Whitefish Bay Village Hall and The Wisconsin Historical Society. Summaries of Whitefish Bays history are included in this report and arranged in themes according to guidelines set forth by the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society. Areas of research include historic Indians, fur trade, government, settlement, industry, transportation, architecture, education, social and political movements, religion, art and literature, commerce, Planning & Landscape Architecture, Recreation & Entertainment, and notable people. Structures deemed eligible for listing in the National Register were evaluated based on their association with these themes. Evaluation of Significant Resources After the reconnaissance survey and research was completed, the data was analyzed to determine which individual properties and districts were potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The evaluation of individual historic resources and districts were also reviewed with the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society prior to inclusion in this report. The evaluation was performed according to the National Registers Criteria for Evaluation and Criteria Considerations which are used to assist local, state, and federal agencies in evaluating nominations to the National Register of Historic Places. The Criteria for Evaluation and Criteria Considerations are described in several National Register publications as follows:
The quality of significance in American history, architecture, archeology, and culture is present in districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects that possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association, and: A. that are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; or B. that are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; or C. that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or D. that have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Ordinarily, cemeteries, birthplaces, or graves of historical figures, properties owned by religious institutions, or used for religious purposes, properties primarily commemorative in nature, and properties that have achieved significance within the past 50 years shall not be considered eligible for

the National Register. However, such properties will qualify if they are integral parts of districts that do meet the criteria or if they fall within the following categories: A. B. C. D. E. F. G. a religious property deriving primary significance from architectural or artistic distinction or historical importance; or a building or structure removed from its original location, but which is significant primarily for architectural value, or which is the surviving structure most importantly associated with a historic period or event; or a birthplace or grave of a historical figure of outstanding importance if there is no other appropriate site or building directly associated with his or her productive life; or a cemetery which derives its primary significance from graves of persons of transcendent importance, from age, from distinctive design features, or from association with historic events; or a reconstructed building when accurately executed in a suitable environment and presented in a dignified manner as part of a restoration master plan, and when no other building or structure with the same association has survived; or a property primarily commemorative in intent if design, age, tradition, or symbolic value has invested it with its own historical significance; or a property achieving significant within the past 50 years is it is of exceptional importance.

As noted above, a historic district is placed in the National Register of Historic Places in a manner similar to individual propertied; using essentially the same criteria. A historic district is comprised of resource; that is, building, structures, sites, or objects located in a geographically definable area. The historic district is united by historical factors and a sense of cohesive architectural integrity. District resources are individually classified as contributing or non-contributing. A. A contributing building, site, structure, or object adds to the historic architectural qualities, historic associations, or archeological values for which a property is significant because (a.) it was presented during the period of significance and possesses historic integrity reflecting its character at that time or is capable of yielding important information about the period, or (b.) it independently or individually meet the National Register criteria. A non-contributing building, site, structure, or object does not add to the historic architectural qualities, historic associations, or archeological values for which a property or district is significant because (a.) it was not present during the period of significance [less than 50 years old or moved to the site], (b.) due to alterations, disturbances, addition, or other changes, it no longer possesses historic integrity reflecting its character at that time or is incapable of yielding important information about the period, or (c.) it does not independently meet the National Register criteria.

Preparation and Presentation of the Intensive Survey Report This survey report describes the project and survey methodology, gives an overview of the history of Whitefish Bay, summarizes the thematic research and survey results, and gives recommendations for the Village of Whitefish Bay. This report does not include a definitive history of the Village of Whitefish Bay. Rather, it provides a broad historical overview of many themes in one publication. It is intended to be a work in progress which can lead to future research and can be updated over time as new information is collected. Prior to issuance of the final survey report, the contents were reviewed by appointed members of the Village of Whitefish Bay Historic Preservation Commission, and staff at the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society. Copies of the final survey report were issued to the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society, the Village of Whitefish Bay, and the Whitefish Bay Public Library. 9

LJM Architects, the Village of Whitefish Bay Historic Preservation Commission, and the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society conducted two public information meetings regarding the survey. The first meeting was held on October 20, 2010, to introduce the survey team and the project process to the community. A second meeting, yet to be determined, will present the results of the project including the survey report, potential districts, and information in the National Register to the Village of Whitefish Bay and its Historic Preservation Commission.

Historical Overview
Pre-Settlement The northern portion of what is now Milwaukee County was once a wild area of prairie, swamps, and forest teeming with beavers, deer, and other wildlife. In 1674, the first European explorer, Pre Jacques Marquette sailed along the western coast of Lake Michigan and camped for two and a half days on the shores of Whitefish Bay. In the early nineteenth century, the Woodland and Sauk Indians who inhabited the region traded at Solomon Juneaus trading post in Milwaukee. Early immigration and settlement of southeastern Wisconsin came via Lake Michigan sailing vessels.1 Settlement The area was first organized as part of the former Town of Milwaukee. The first land purchase in the area occurred in 1835, when Joel Buttles of Columbus, Ohio, in Whitefish Bays first land purchase, bought 240 acres extending from Silver Spring Drive south to Hampton Road and from Lydell to Idlewild Avenues. At this time, the land in Southeastern Wisconsin was sold by the federal government at public auction in Green Bay at a cost of $1.25 per acre. Seven years later, A. Markert built the first homestead in Whitefish Bay on 37 acres near Fairmount and Lydell Avenues. The Swain Family, early settlers during the 1840s, cleared land and planted an apple orchard. As the city of Milwaukee grew, being incorporating in 1851, settlers moved further into the surrounding area. Whitefish Bays first settlers were farmers; several of whom became commercial fishermen and storekeepers overtime.2 Access to Milwaukee Countys North Shore area improved vastly by the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad in 1871, the Lake Avenue Turnpike in 1872, and the Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad in 1886. While many of the residents remained farmers, some businessmen moved to the area, commuting to Milwaukee via these new modes of transportation. Real estate and railroad speculation started in 1887, causing a boom in land purchasing and subdividing. Whitefish Bays lakefront resorts and picnic grounds became popular retreats and vacation spots for Milwaukee residents with Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort, which opened in 1889, being the most famous. 3 Development The Village of Whitefish Bay incorporated in 1892 with a population of 312. 4 Soon after, the villages first school was constructed.5 Following incorporation, the village experienced its first building and real estate boom. Short lived, it ended with the financial panic of 1893. However, 11

the majority of the village was platted as residential subdivisions by this time. By 1900, the villages population was 512. Residential construction continued slowly throughout the following decade. The Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort remained popular and the most notable attraction in the village after buying out its competitors, Jefferson and Welcome Parks. 6 After the villages first wooden school was destroyed by fire, the villages second school was built, starting a tradition of brick construction of its school buildings.7 The Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort closed in 1914. 8 Beginning with a 1920 census of only 882 residents, Whitefish Bay saw rapid development and growth, ending the decade with 5,362 residents. Many businessmen and professionals from Milwaukee continued to build year-round homes and settle in the village. In response to this growth, two new elementary schools were built, as well as development of the commercial corridors along Henry Clay Street and Silver Spring Drive. 9 In response to the rapid growth, the village implemented zoning and architectural review programs to control the characteristics and qualities of the village. 10 Educational needs of its youth still being top priority, a high school was opened in the early-1930s. 11 Residential construction continued to boom through the Great Depression; the population of Whitefish Bay was 8,754 in 1938. 12 The villages population growth slowed during World War II, accommodating 9,651 in 1946. Another period of rapid development and growth occurred after the war, rivaling that of the 1920s. By 1950, the village grew to a population of 14,625. Increased development of commercial buildings along Silver Spring Drive continued after World War II as well.13 The first major apartment developments in the village began in the early 1950s, increasing the urban character of the village.14 By 1960, residential construction slowed as the village reached the point of being completely built-out. Whitefish Bay reached a peak population of 18,360 that decade. 15 Present Day In recent years, the village has continued to mature as one of Milwaukees upper-middle class suburbs. Multi-family housing projects have continued to slowly be developed near the villages commercial districts. Due to the zoning and architectural review programs that were enacted during the early twentieth century, the village maintains a high level of historic integrity and architectural character.

Government
Federal Government United States Military The First Light Battery of the United States National Guard, later to be known as Battery A, was organized in 1885 by sixty Milwaukeeans led by J. B. Oliver. Since 1890, they shared the Broadway Armory in Milwaukee with the Light Horse Squadron. 16 In 1907, Battery A purchased pavilions from both Jefferson and Welcome Parks and moved them to nineteen acres of land purchased south of Henry Clay Street. There, these buildings were remodeled into an armory. 17 Battery A moved to its new, non-extant facilities in Whitefish Bay in 1908. By 1928, plans were made for a new armory building. Thirteen of the original nineteen acres of land were sold to the village for $80,000 on which it built Whitefish Bay High School. The profit from selling this land helped finance the construction of a new brick Armory. The Whitefish Bay Armory is now non-extant and the grounds have become Armory Park. 18 Three men from the area that would eventually become the Village of Whitefish Bay fought for the Union during the United States Civil War. A group of 35 men from Whitefish Bay served in the First World War, led by Colonel P. C. Westphal. Only one of these men did not return at the wars end. 19 Hundreds of men and women from Whitefish Bay served during World War II, seven of which gave their lives defending their country. Soldiers from the Whitefish Bay Armory formed part of the U.S. Armys 32nd Division and were involved with the New Guinea campaign, among other activities. A wooden memorial honoring Whitefish Bay veterans was erected in Big Bay Park after the wars end. However, it deteriored and was removed; today a carved, wooden eagle from the memorial is mounted in the boardroom of the Whitefish Bay Village Hall. A new memorial was constructed in Armory Park in 2010.20 United States Postal Service Whitefish Bays first post office was established in 1874. It was operated by Lewis Scheife from 1892 to 1900 from his non-extant general store at the southwest corner of Silver Spring and Marlborough Drives. The location of this store was immediately northeast of the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad tracks and depot, by which mail bags were delivered to the store 13

where customers walked to receive their mail. The postal service operated in this manner until approximately 1912 and at which time the concept of mail delivery became popular.21 By the 1940s, the United States Postal Service was operating in the village as a contract station. In 1943, the postal station was located at Emmerlings Ice Cream Parlor, 529 E. Silver Spring Drive. By 1945, a temporary structure, formerly used as a skating rink warming house at Klode Park, was moved to a village-owned lot on which has since been constructed Sendiks Fruit Market, from which to conduct postal services. In 1947, when the sites location was sold to Frank, Ignatius, Thomas, and Joseph Balistreri, future operators of Sendiks Fruit Market, the temporary post office was relocated multiple times: first to a vacant lot that is now a small public park east of the The Bay Liquor Shoppe Building at 342 E. Silver Spring Drive, a year later to the public parking lot south of 529 E. Silver Spring Drive, after a few months to what was then a lot at 434 E. Silver Spring Drive, and then in 1949 back to the vacant lot on Silver Spring Drive 22 Due to the villages rapid growth, a permanent Post Office Branch with increased service was desired by villages businesses and residents. In the early 1950s, bids were sought for a new post office building. A contract was awarded to Harry Forman to construct a brick and stone trimmed building to be leased by the United States Postal Service. This building, completed in 1952, was leased for 15 years by the post office and located on Silver Spring Drive. This station operated as a branch of the Milwaukee Post Office, with mail being processed at the downtown Milwaukee post office and delivered to this location early every morning.23 Whitefish Bay is currently served by the North Shore branch location of the Milwaukee Post Office at 5651 N Lydell Avenue in the City of Glendale.24 The building located at 527 & 529 E. Silver Spring Drive was not included in the survey as its additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture. The Whitefish Bay Post Office, located at 103, 105 & 109 E. Silver Spring Drive; was included in the survey but is not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. State Government Wisconsin Governors Julius Peter Heil; born in 1874 in Duesmond-an-der-Mosel, Germany, immigrated to Wisconsin with his parents in 1881. The Heil Family settled in New Berlin, Wisconsin, where he attended school until the age of 12. 25 By the age of 14, he began working as a drill press operator for the Milwaukee Harvester Company. He later worked for the Falk Corporation of Milwaukee and traveled throughout South America installing street railway tracks. In 1901, Heil founded the Heil Rail Joint Welding Company, changing its name to Heil Company five years later. The Heil Company became a major manufacturer of dump-truck bodies, storage and transport tanks, road machinery, and residential heating units. Heil and his wife, Elizabeth, purchased the Mediterranean Revival style house located at 5240 N. Lake Drive, designed by architect Russell Barr Williamson, from its original owner shortly after its completion in 1926. They lived in this house in Whitefish Bay during Heils rise to political

14

prominence. 26 He was appointed to head the state advisory board for the National Recovery Administration by President Roosevelt in 1933. After winning the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 1938, Heil was elected Governor of the State of Wisconsin, defeating Progressive incumbent Philip F. LaFollette. During his two terms in office, 1939-1943, his administration sponsored the enactment of the State Employment Peace Act, reorganized the welfare and tax departments, created the Department of Securities, modernized the state's accounting system, and directed the liquidation of frozen assets of the Building and Loan Association. 27 As governor, he also consolidated several programs into the Department of Motor Vehicles, Department of Public Welfare, and the Division of Departmental Research. In 1940, Heil also served as an alternate delegate to Republican National Convention from Wisconsin in 1940 and was a member of the Freemasons.28 During Heil's second term, a State Guard was created to replace the National Guard, which had been called to active duty during World War II. 29 Governor Heil was defeated by Progressive opponent Orland S. Loomis in the gubernatorial election of 1942. At that time, he returned to his business interests and was chairman of the board of the Heil Company until his death in 1949. 30 The Carl Herzfeld House, located at 5240 N. Lake Drive, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Wisconsin Delegates & National Committee Members William D. Doll served as a Wisconsin delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1940 and as an alternate to the 1944 convention. 31 Brad Courtney served as a Wisconsin delegate to the Republican National Convention in 2004 and 2008. 32 Patty Reiman served as a Wisconsin delegate to the Republican National Convention in 2008. 33 Local Government Milwaukee County Fred G. Isenring, a resident involved with the incorporation of the Village of Whitefish Bay, served as the first President of the Village of Whitefish Bay from 1892 to 1895, as well as, the Whitefish Bay representative to the Milawukee County Board. 34 Also in 1892, Isenrings house was constructed next to the village hall on Fleetwood Place. The house was eventually relocated to 920 & 922 E. Sylvan Avenue, where it stood until its demolition in 2009. During his term as Village President, Isenring remained active as a businessman in real estate, insurance, and real estate loans. He developed three subdivisions in Whitefish Bay around the turn of the twentieth century.35 Isenring was elected County Sheriff in 1896. He left office the following year, but failed to file financial reports for at least 18 months of his term. $20,000 from sheriff sales conducted by Isenring after his election was found to be unaccounted for in an investigation by the district attorney. Isenring was ordered to appear in court; but he did not. An order for his arrest was issued in December of 1899, but Isenring had disappeared by that time. His wife told authorities he went to Fond du Lac on business and never returned. It is suspected that Isenring

15

suffered greatly financially during the depression of 1898, having purchased the majority of his real estate during the boom earlier that decade. Further knowledge of Isenrings whereabouts was never uncovered. 36 William A. Klatte, an 1899 graduate from the University of Wisconsin Law School in Madison, helped create the position of Milwuakee County Clerk of Civil Court. He held that position for thirty years. After 1912, he and his wife Florence lived at 716 E. Day Avenue in Whitefish Bay.37 The Herbert Kinne House, located at 716 E. Day Avenue, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Judge Joseph A. Padway was born in 1891 in England and immigrated to Milwaukee in 1906. He graduated from Marquette University Law School in 1912 and become a prominent labor lawyer. He served as a State Senator in the 1925 session of the Legislature. From 1926 to 1932, he was a Milwaukee County Judge. During the mid-1920s, he served as general counsel for the Wisconsin State Federation of Labor and, the following decade, was appointed general counsel for the American Federation of Labor. He retained the later post until his death in 1947.38 Padway constructed a house on Lake Drive in Whitefish Bay in 1930; it was designed by architect Hugo V. Miller and constructed by Bentley Brothers Inc.39 The Judge Joseph A. & Lydia Padway House, located at 5312 N. Lake Drive, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the integrity of its Mediterranean Revival style architecture. Village of Whitefish Bay Early in its history, Milwaukee County consisted of two townships divided at what is now Greenfield Avenue. What is now Whitefish Bay was in the former Town of Milwaukee, south of Greenfield Avenue was the Town of Lake.40 The prime reason behind Whitefish Bays formation and incorporation as a village was the subject of education. By the 1890s, the areas closest school was located in the present City of Glendale east of the Union Cemetery between Lydell Avenue and Port Washington Road, a several mile walk for some of the settlements children.41 Attempts were made to change the Town of Milwaukee school districts existing boundaries to result in a closer school; however, these attempts were unsuccessful. As a result, these residents sought incorporation and the right to form their own school district. On June 7, 1892, the Village of Whitefish Bay was incorporated. Fred G. Isenring was elected the first Village President; William T. Consaul, A. Ehlers, I. Lefeber, Lewis Scheife, Ernst Timpel, and Dr. Thaddeus W. Williams were elected the first Village Trustees. The first village board meetings took place in a rented room at Lewis Scheifes grocery store and later in the Fleetwood School. For more information on Fleetwood School, refer to Chapter 8 Education. A building dedicated to serve as village hall was purchased from A. A. Pinet in October of 1902.42 Located at 908 E. Lexington Boulevard, it originally was used as a saloon, and had stood vacant for a period of time. After being moved to the north side of Fleetwood Place, just south of where the Fleetwood School stood, it was used as the Whitefish Bay Village Hall until 1921. At that time, it was relocated to 314 E. Beaumont Avenue by Lewis Scheife and converted into a private residence. 43

16

In 1922, a new one-story, brick village hall with attached tool garage designed by architect Martin Tullgren was constructed on a site located at 801 E. Lexington Boulevard. Soon after, the police department and jail moved into this building as well. Within six years additional space was required for the newly formed fire department and additional administrative offices. 200 feet of land west of the hall was purchased, and the building that had occupied it was demolished. 44 In 1931 a two-story Whitefish Bay Village Hall, early 1950s addition designed by architect Roy O. Papenthien (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehrring) was completed as well as a second floor addition onto the original one-story building. With these additions the village administration, police department, fire department, department of public works, inspection departments, and municipal court were all housed under the same roof. Living quarters for the firemen were added in 1936. A library opened in this buildings basement the following year. 45 By 1950, several of these departments had outgrown the facility resulting in the creation of a civic center plan for the redevelopment of the former railroad and street car right-of-way that ran east of Marlborough Drive. By 1955, a new fire station and library were constructed. For more information on the Whitefish Bay Public Library, refer to Chapter 8 Education. After a proposal to convert it into a community and senior center was deemed financially infeasible to make the building meet state and village building codes. In 1970, the old village hall was demolished, and the land sold as three residential lots.46 The present Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Police Department was constructed in 1970 by Peters Construction Company at the cost of almost $380,000. 47 The building also houses the emergency operating center for the North Shore Zone A Civil Defense.48 The Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Police Department, located at 5300 N. Marlborough Drive, was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. During the late 1920s, the City of Milwaukee was making an effort to annex many of its surrounding suburban communities. The proposed annexation of Whitefish Bay was tied closely with the negotiations over water supply in 1927. The majority of Whitefish Bay residents at the time considered immediate annexation bad for the village, yet many were open to the idea of future annexation. The issue came to a climax with the next election, in which a two-to-one majority of anti-annexation candidates were elected. 49 To this day, the village remains incorporated covering an area of approximately 2.4 square miles and is governed by a village board of part-time trustees, a president elected for a 3 year term, and a full-time village manager.50

Police Department Prior to 1922, law enforcement in Whitefish Bay was provided by a Village Marshall. That year, a chief of police and several patrolmen were hired forming the Whitefish Bay Police Department. 51 The police department and a jail were housed in a non-extant building constructed by Charles Langschwager in 1898 on a triangular piece of land purchased for approximately $30 at Lancaster Avenue and Kimbark Place. In 1931, an addition to the village hall designed by architect Roy O. Papenthien was completed, creating a new home for the police and other departments. With these additions the village administration, library, police department, fire department, department of public works, inspection departments, and municipal court were all housed under the same roof. By 1950, several of these departments had outgrown the facility resulting in the creation of a civic center plan for the redevelopment of the former railroad and street car right of way that ran east of Marlborough Drive. By 1955, a new fire station and library were constructed. Today, the police department occupies space in the Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Police Department, constructed in 1970. 52 Whitefish Bays Police Department maintains a mutual aid agreement with departments of the neighboring North Shore communities. 53 The Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Police Department, located at 5300 N. Marlborough Drive, was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Fire Department Whitefish Bay was protected by a volunteer fire department of approximately twenty five men until 1916, when the village contracted fire protection services from the City of Milwaukee. The citys nearest station was more than two miles south of the village limits. The first step towards establishing a full-time fire department was taken in 1923 with the purchase of public fire extinguishers. In the September of 1928, a single fire engine was

18

purchased and six full-time firemen were hired for the establishment of the Whitefish Bay Fire Department. 54 In 1931 an addition to the village hall designed by architect Roy O. Papenthien was completed, creating a home for the fire and other departments. With these additions the village administration, library, police department, fire department, department of public works, inspection departments, and municipal court were all housed under the same roof. Living quarters for the firemen were added in 1936. By 1950, several of these departments had outgrown the facility resulting in the creation of a civic center plan for the redevelopment of the former railroad and street car right-of-way that ran east of Marlborough Drive. In 1954, the extant fire station designed by architect George F. Spinti III was constructed by DeLyle G. Beyer at the intersection of Lexington Boulevard and Marlborough Drive. An addition was constructed onto the station in 1970 by Roberts Construction Company. 55 Whitefish Bays Fire Department maintains a reciprocal aid agreement with departments of the neighboring North Shore communities. 56 The Whitefish Bay Fire Department, located at 825 E. Lexington Boulevard, was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Public Health Department By the mid-twentieth century, the village maintained its own Public Health Department, headed by a medical doctor who serves as the part-time health commissioner. The staff also consisted of a sanitary inspector, nurse supervisor, and nurses situated in each of the Whitefish Bay schools, both public and parochial. The school clinic service offered regular vision and hearing tests, vaccinations, tuberculin scratch tests, and tetanus booster shots. Health services were also offered on occasion to adult residents.57 Since that time, the Villages of Whitefish Bay and Shorewood share a combined Public Health Department. It is currenltly located in the Shorewood Public Library and has a mission to protect and promote the health of the communities, prevent disease, and preserve the environment from health hazards. 58 There are no historic resources associated with Whitefish Bays Public Health Department. Public Works The Village of Whitefish Bay has a Public Works Department that has jurisdiction over street maintenance and lighting, sanitation, garbage collection, forestry, and the care of parks, beaches, public buildings, and grounds. 59 No resources relating to the Whitefish Bay Public Works Department have been included in this survey. The earliest streets in what is now the Village of Whitefish Bay were all dirt roads. Streets began to be graded and paved with gravel supplied by Lewis Schreiber and William Pagels during the early 1890s. Also at this time, sidewalks slowly began to be added, with the first being on a stretch of Lake Drive from Silver Spring to the platform of the Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad near Henry Clay Street in 1892. The following year, Day Avenue from the bluff to Lake Drive was paved with cedar blocks by John Martin of Oshkosh at the cost of approximately $4,500. In 1893, Fred Isenring financed the grading and paving of Marlborough

19

Drive near the old Fleetwood School. That same year, Sylvan Avenue had its width reduced. In 1894, sidewalks were installed along Henry Clay Street from the lake to Marlborough Drive and Marlborough Drive between Silver Spring Drive and Henry Clay Street. These sidewalks were typically constructed of six foot lengths of 2 wooden planks. 60 The villages first street trees were planted in the early 1890s by developers along Day Avenue east of Lake Drive and along Glen and Lake Forest Avenues in the mid- to late-1890s. 61 After 1903, approximately 140 gas lamps had been utilized along village streets, fueled with gasoline contracted from Wellsbach Company. In 1913, voters chose to upgrade to electric street lamps. That year, the Milwaukee Electric Company installed 25 lights. By 1925, an ornamental lighting program was established. 62 In 1960, a twelve-year lighting project was planned; within four years all streets in the village were lit and replacement of the existing street lights began. 63 The Whitefish Bay Village Board approved that a park board be established in 1923 and enacted an ordinace requiring that all future street tress be white elms. The following year, 790 white elms were planted along village streets. Elms were utilized exclusively for the villages street trees through the 1940s.64 While several of the villages neighborhoods were constructed with mid-block alleys, many were vacated during the 1930s, with the land being acquired by neighboring property owners. 65 Alleys remain in limited portions of the village, most prominently in the proposed Lake Crest Residential Historic District. As of 1987, the village of Whitefish Bay maintains approximately 35 miles of roads, 70 miles of sidewalk, and 4 miles of alleys. 66 Whitefish Bay had a sanitary sewer system that emptied into Lake Michigan as early as 1894. 67 After an outbreak of typhoid due to well contamination on the Tweedy Land Company Property near Fleetwood School in 1898, sanitation became a major public issue. The villages first sewage disposal system was completed in 1917. 68 The outlet into Lake Michigan was abandoned when the village joined the Metropolitan Sewerage District in 1926. The Public Works Department remains responsible for maintaining the storm sewers which still dispose of surface storm water into Lake Michigan with outlets at Klode and Big Bay Parks in addition to the a Milwaukee River outlet. 69 Starting in 1914, the Village of Whitefish Bay contracted to purchase water from the City of Milwaukee and water mains were installed. At the end of 1927, a conference was held between the villages of Whitefish Bay and Shorewood and the City of Milwaukee concerning water. It was suggested that Whitefish Bay be served northward via Richards Street from the Milwaukee River to eliminate receiving twice metered water through Shorewood. This action required Whitefish Bay to annex a strip of land leading to the Milwaukee River, through Estabrook Park. After these actions took place, the City of Milwaukee tried leveraging its water supply to entice the annexation of Whitefish Bay and Shorewood into the city. This demand caused both villages to terminate their water contracts with the city and seek their own water system. In 1949, Whitefish Bay constructed a water tower that services the village alone. It is located at the north end of Lydell Avenue in what is today Water Tower Park. By 1963, Whitefish Bay, Fox Point,

20

and Glendale began operating a shared $6,000,000 water supply and treatment plant. In 1998, a new water tower was constructed by Stroo Construction of Menomonee Falls replacing the 1949 tower.70 In 1923, the village made a four-year contract with William C. Schultz for garbage removal and disposal into his gravel pit. The village purchased six acres of land on which to construct an incinerator in 1929. It was completed the following year for a total investment of $75,000. 71 A new incinerator was constructed in 1956, and at that time non-burnable refuse was disposed of in a dump located outside of Whitefish Bay at 52nd Street and Good Hope Road. 72 The Village of Whitefish Bay Incinerator, formerly located at the southeast corner of Fairmount and Lydell Avenues, has been demolished.

Industry
Introduction While the Village of Whitefish Bay has grown almost exclusively into a residential suburb of Milwaukee, some early settlers of the area took advantage of the areas greatest resources, the waters of Lake Michigan and the stone bluffs along the Milwaukee River.73 Quarrying and Masonry Products In 1873, Joseph R. Berthelet, Sr., a Milwaukee manufacturer of cement sewer pipe, discovered that limestone along the Milwaukee River was a valuable raw material for the manufacture of natural hydraulic cement. Deposits of this variety of limestone were not common. The closest quarries to Milwaukee at that time were in Utica, Illinois, and Louisville, Kentucky. With his knowledge of the cement-making process, he; his brother, Henry Barthelet; his neighbor, George H. Paul; a neighbor and pharmacist C. H. Orton; and John Johnston of Mitchell Bank established the Milwaukee Cement Company in 1875 after the testing of the discovered samples. The partners each commenced individually to acquire land on the east bank of the Milwaukee River between the Capitol Drive and Port Washington Road bridges, to be turned over to the company for stock. Working capitol was secured through the sale of additional shares. Construction of the first kilns began in the spring of 1876 south of the Estabrook Park lagoon. The first shipment of cement was ready that fall. The plants initial capacity was 100 barrels per day, but grew to 2,000 barrels per day as additional kilns were constructed and demand increased. The Chicago & North Western Railway built a spur to the mills. The company established exclusive selling agencies in Chicago, Detroit, Saginaw, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth, Omaha, Kansas City, and St. Joseph, Missouri. Henry Campbell, another member of the company, developed an improved kiln increasing capacity by incorporating a series of grates in the bottom of the kiln. Campbell was granted a patent on this device in December of 1897, Patent No. 591,897. Soonafter, all of the companys kilns were remodeled to Campbells specifications.74 At the height of the companys success, the rotary kiln was invented introducing Portland cement which could be produced at a lower cost and from various types of materials, causing a great decline in the demand for natural cement. The Milwaukee Cement Company, like many others, declined in its output of natural cement. During this time, the company began distributing Portland cement and, in 1907, secured the Newaygo brand. This added volume made it possible to continue the production of natural cement at its facilities along the Milwaukee River at a small scale until it ceased production in 1911. In the following years, two mills were leased for a short period of time for the manufacture of silica products. However, after fires in 1910 and 1914, the mills were wrecked and salvaged for scrap iron and brick. The companys 350 acres on both 23

banks of the Milwaukee River were sold, the east bank being purchased by Milwaukee County in 1916 to develop Estabrook Park, the first in the countys park system.75 Sometime after the turn of the century, an area that was quarried became filled with water, has since been partially filled in, and is now known as the Estabrook Park lagoon.76 No resources relating to the Milwaukee Cement Company are known to remain in Whitefish Bay. Fishing Industry By 1862, commercial fishing began in what is now Whitefish Bay. In that year, John Luck from Green Bay began pound net fishing on the Whitefish Bay of Lake Michigan. Pound nets are traps for catching fish that consist of a system of stacked nets forming a fence that leads fish from a point offshore into a rectangular enclosure, or pound, from which escape is impossible. A majority of fish caught were the lakes whitefish, for which the bay and village have been named. Shortly after the opening of the Lake Pound net fishing on Lake Michigan Avenue Turnpike in 1872, Luck opened a small (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) restaurant and tavern, where he presumably fed guests with his catch. It was located near the north end of the toll road, at Silver Spring and Lake Drives. This was a forerunner to the resort and tourism industry that Whitefish Bay became well known for. 77 Brothers, William Henry and Captain Theodore Consaul started pound net fishing commercially in Whitefish Bay by 1864. They eventually sold their business to their brother-in-law, Lewis Scheife, who supplied 300 to 600 pounds of fish weekly to the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort.78 For more information on the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort, refer to Chapter 13 Recreation & Entertainment. William Henry Consauls residence and his father William Consauls house, inherited by Lewis Schiefe during the late 1800s, are the only known extant resources related to the pound net fishing industry of Whitefish Bay. The William Henry & Ruth Consaul House, located at 5654 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, was included in the survey but is not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The William Consaul House, located at 716 E. Silver Spring Drive, was not included in the survey as alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture. Miscellaneous Small Industries Richard Seyfert operated a soda works factory on the 5600 Block between Lydell and Bay Ridge Avenues, behind his Queen Anne style residence on Silver Spring Drive. The companys main customer was the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort. In 1897, Seyfert sold the company and house to Conrad Cassel. The soda factory continued operating until 1916, after which the factory building was demolished. The Richard Seyfert House, located at 130 & 134 W. Silver Spring Drive, was eventually subdivided into commercial spaces and was demolished recently.79

Transportation
Great Lakes Navigation Since the first visit to the area by Father Jacques Marquette in 1674, Lake Michigan was used as the primary means of transportation across Wisconsin. 80 As Whitefish Bay became settled, commercial fishing boats were the most common vessel to sail in the Whitefish Bay of Lake Michigan. However, by the 1880s, several boats would taxi summer crowds from downtown Milwaukee to lakefront resorts in Whitefish Bay. In 1886 these boats included the following: the Chequamegon, the Cyclone, the Imperial, the 89foot-long Skater, the 109-foot-long Bloomer Girl, and The Steam Boat Chequamegon the 123-foot-long Eagle. From 1888 to 1891, multiple (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) vessels charged 25 cents for a trip from downtown Milwaukee to Whitefish Bay. In 1902, the Bloomer Girl was re-christened the Silver Spray and sailed between Lincoln and Jackson Parks in Chicago, where it hit a reef off of 55th Street and capsized in 1914. Also in 1902, the Naomi of the Crosby line and the Pabst Companys steamer City of Grand Rapids continued chartering to Whitefish Bay, with live music being played on the Crosby lines runs.81 Great Lakes navigation between downtown Milwaukee and Whitefish Bay died down as other means of transportation became more prevalent. No historic resources relating to commercial fishing or these charter steamers remain. Rail Lines Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad The first railroad to come to Whitefish Bay was the Milwaukee, Lake Shore, and Western in 1874. The road, built south from Manitowoc, had planned to use the tracks on the west bank of Milwaukee River owned by the Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad for its right of way into the City of Milwaukee. However, arrangements had not been made to utilize this route until tracks had been laid as far south as the Dillman family farm nearby in the present Village of Bayside. The Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Westerns offer to utilize these tracks was turned down as officials of the Milwaukee & St. Paul could not see a benefit in aiding a competitor. A new route from the northern edge of Whitefish Bay into Milwaukee was needed, and Chief Engineer Louis Soulerin suggested heading the tracks towards the lake front and continue down the bluff near Milwaukees North Point to its terminal on the lake front downtown was conceived. This route was presented to the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad, also looking for a route into Milwaukee 27

from its Fond du Lac line, and an agreement was made to join the tracks at Lakeshore Junction, just south of Capitol Drive in Shorewood and run the shared tracks towards the downtown depot from there. 82 The tracks laid to that point were extended south along the western side of what would become Milwaukee Country Day Schools campus, veering southeast towards the intersection of Silver Spring Drive and Hollywood Avenue, continue southeast along Marlborough Drive from Birch to Fairmount Avenues, and south into Shorewood along present day Ardmore Avenue.83 In 1887, Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western purchased land in Whitefish Bay along Fairmount Avenue. As rumors spread that the company was going to develop car shops and freight yards at this location, real estate firms platted nearby the first subdivisions north of North Avenue.84 Land was transferred from Burke and Mann to the railroad for a Whitefish Bay depot in March of 1888, providing the station be built within the year. A covered platform was constructed on each side of the track just north of Lexington Boulevard by 1890.85 These actions set off a short lived boom resulting in the platting of most of what was to become the Village of Whitefish Bay, incorporated within a few years thereafter. Officials of the railroad became financially involved in some of these subdivisions, and the company began to run special service to encourage prospective homeowners to buy lots. As the boom faded, this service was cut. However, as the local resorts grew in popularity, service by the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western was soon restored to Whitefish Bay. Special excursion trains ran to Whitefish Bay from Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland, and other cities. 86 As the village grew, crossings were built to make street connections across the tracks. In 1892, crossings were installed at Marlborough Drive and Colfax Place. Two years later, one was added at Lake View Avenue. In 1895, crossings at Birch Avenue and Sylvan Avenue were finally added after years of requests by the Village. 87 In 1893, Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western was purchased by Chicago & Northwestern, becoming part of its Lake Shore Division. Service was continued from downtown to Whitefish Bay with one engine and a single car; a station was located immediately southeast of the intersection of Silver Spring Drive and Hollywood Avenue.88 In 1895, the railroad ceased its suburban service to Whitefish Bay and gave up its idea of developing the Fairmount Avenue property as a rail yard, later deciding on completely abandoning its line between Lakeshore Junction and Fox Point. It wasnt until 1927 that Chicago & Northwestern agreed to sell their tracks and land along this 4-mile stretch to the Villages of Whitefish Bay and Shorewood. 89 That year work started on removing the rails and ended in 1929. In Whitefish Bay, these lands were platted as portions of the Right Of Way Subdivision and the Assessors Plats (A.P.) numbered 241, 244, 245, 246, 247, and 249. The village sold most of this land for private development and retained lots along Marlborough Drive to become a village civic center. Parcels were developed into Richards School (Right Of Way Subdivision); Water Tower Park, Milwaukee Jewish Federations Karl Community Campus, and the 6000 to 6100 blocks of Shoreland Avenue (A.P. 241); United Methodist Church, Whitefish Bay Public Library, Whitefish Bay Village Hall and Police Department, and Whitefish Bay Fire Department, and Divinity-Divine Charity Lutheran Church (A.P. 244); the Bay Village and Bay Colony Apartments and Condominiums and the former Whitefish Bay Incinerator (A.P. 245); Cahill Square Park and the 700 to 1000 blocks of Fairmount Avenue (A.P. 146); the former Whitefish Bay Armory at what is now Armory Park,

28

Whitefish Bay High School, the 4900 blocks of Marlborough Drive and Idlewild Avenue, Holy Family Catholic Church and School, and Bay Shore Evangelical Lutheran Church (A.P. 247); and Cumberland School and the 4600 block of Ardmore Avenue (A.P. 249).90 No historic resources relating to the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad remain. Road Networks Sauk Trail The earliest road through the area was a trail of the Sauk Indians. It began at Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Milwaukee, ran through Whitefish Bay along Cumberland Boulevard and Lake Drive, and continued through Saukville and Sheboygan to Green Bay. 91 This, and similar trails of both Indians and early white settlers, were marked with bent trees. A branch 8 to 10 feet above the ground would be tied down with a vine or strip of rawhide to the ground in position parallel to the trail; as the fastening rotted away, the tree would branch would remain in its position marking the trail and continue to grow straight up from that point. In 1974, an elm tree in Schoolhouse Park, thought to have been a marker tree along that trail, was diagnosed as mortally wounded by parasitic elm beetles and felled. Another elm was planted in its place to memorialize the history of the trail.92 Other than Cumberland Boulevard and Lake Drive, no historic resources relating to the Sauk Trail remain. Lake Avenue Turnpike Charlie Andrews, proprietor of the Newhall House in Milwaukee, formed the Lake Avenue Turnpike Company in 1869 after obtaining a state charter to operate a toll road. At the cost of $50,000, a road was constructed along the lakefront connecting what at that time was the City of Milwaukees northern border of North Avenue at what today is Lafayette Place to Silver Spring Drive in Whitefish Bay. It opened in the fall of 1872 with one toll gate at the southern end with a 5 cent charge. As Milwaukee grew north, the southern end of the road was donated to the city, progressively moving the toll gate northward to Bradford Avenue, then into Shorewood to a point north of Edgewood Avenue, and finally to Capitol Drive. The toll road served as the first incentive for development along the North Shore. Small businesses like Lake Avenue Turnpike John Lucks saloon, now non-extant, soon opened at the end of (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) the line in Whitefish Bay, predecessor to the great road houses, resorts, and picnic grounds that would later open along the lake from Milwaukee to Whitefish Bay. The last remaining portion of the toll road was sold to Milwaukee County for $15,000 in the summer of 1913, making the entire length of Lake Drive a public thoroughfare as exists today. 93 At the time of its operation as a toll road, the roadway was two lanes divided by a grass median. It was known as the Whitefish Bay Road, Lake Shore Avenue, and Lake Avenue. 94 Other than Lake Drive, no historic resources relating to the Lake Avenue Turnpike remain.

Whitefish Bay Public Streets The first streets in the Village of Whitefish Bay were all dirt roads. Streets began to be graded and paved with gravel supplied by Lewis Schreiber and William Pagels during the early 1890s. Also at this time, sidewalks slowly began to be added, with the first being on a stretch of what was called Lake Avenue along the bluff from Silver Spring to the platform of the Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad near Henry Clay Street in 1892. The following year, Day Avenue from the bluff to Lake Drive was paved with cedar blocks by John Martin of Oshkosh at the cost of approximately $4,500. In 1893, Fred Isenring financed the grading and paving of Marlborough Drive near the old Fleetwood School. That same year, Sylvan Avenue had its width reduced. In 1894, sidewalks were installed along Henry Clay Street from the lake to Marlborough Drive and Marlborough Drive between Silver Spring Drive and Henry Clay Street. These sidewalks were typically constructed of six foot lengths of 2 wooden planks. By 1908, a portion of Lake Drive was abandoned between Henry Clay Street and Fairmount Avenue due to erosion of the bluff. However, this stretch was reconstructed in 1937 and renamed Palisades Drive. 95 Mass Transportation Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad The Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad was founded by Guido Pfister, William H. Bradley, J. V. Dupre, and Val Blatz in 1886. Construction began the following year, and operations began in 1888. Tracks began in the City of Milwaukee at North and Farwell Avenues, and ran along a private right of way along Downer Avenue, continued north through Shorewood, and terminated at Henry Clay Street in Whitefish Bay near the non-extant Pabsts Whitefish Bay Resort. Land purchased from the Best Brewing Company in Welcome Park was used for the non-extant depot and platform. The stops listed in an 1891 time table were named North Avenue, Glenn Avenue, Park Place, Burleigh Street, Clarence Place, Menlo Park, Shooting Park, Pleasant Valley, Mineral Spring Crossing, Dahlmann, Oakland Avenue, Bradleys Glendale, Lake Woods, Fairmount, and Whitefish Bay. 96 The non-extant Fairmount depot was located near the intersection of Hampton Road and Woodburn Street. This rail service, nicknamed the Dummy Line, operated with a 12-ton locomotive on light gauge track pulling one enclosed car in winter and two open-air cars in summer. The line was used largely by vacationers traveling from Milwaukee to the picnic grounds and resorts along the river and lakefront in Shorewood and Whitefish Bay. A 20 minute schedule was maintained in active summer months; limited service was provided in winter.

In 1893, the Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroad was authorized to extend its service along Henry Clay Street from its end at Lake Drive west to the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad at Marlborough Drive, then north to Silver Spring Drive. At present time it is unknown if this extension was ever operated. The Dummy Line ceased operations after 10 years of service in 1898, after the Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Companys Oakland Avenue streetcar line was extended to Silver Spring Drive. 97 No historic resources related to the Dummy Line remain. The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Company In the fall of 1897 the Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Company, a forerunner to the current Wisconsin Energy Corporation, was authorized to construct an extension of its Oakland Avenue streetcar line to Whitefish Bay. The line began operating the following year following its route on Oakland Avenue in Shorewood to Hampton Road; north on Bartlett Avenue, west on Fairmount Avenue; north on Woodburn Street; west along Henry Clay Street; and then parallel to the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad tracks, in the same path of todays Marlborough Drive; until Silver Spring Drive. It was eventually extended north upon Lake Drive to Day Avenue. 98 In 1904, an extension was made north along Lake Drive to School Road and on to River Road in Fox Point. A stop at School Road was used by a large number of faculty members and students of the Milwaukee Country Day School, who gave the line the nickname the Yellow Streak. For a short period of time in 1925, the streetcar was temporarily discontinued for a trail of bus service; however, residents responded by voting in favor of streetcar service over buses. In March of 1931, streetcar service north of Silver Spring Drive was discontinued, being substituted by bus service to Dean Road in Fox Point. 99 No historic resources related to The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Company streetcar remain. Milwaukee County Transit System Presently, the Village of Whitefish Bay is served by buses of the Milwaukee County Transit System. Route 10 terminates at Bayshore Mall, adjacent to Lydell Avenue in the City of Glendale, travels along Silver Spring Drive to Santa Monica Boulevard and continues on south to Shorewood, eventually reaching downtown Milwaukee. Route 15, also terminating at Bayshore Mall, serves Silver Spring Drive west to Marlborough Drive, south to Hampton Road, east to Oakland Avenue, continuing south on Oakland through Shorewood, and eventually reaching to downtown Milwaukee.100 List of Surveyed Historic Resources Mentioned in the Text

Architecture
Introduction Architecture in Wisconsin has mirrored the trends and fashions that were evident in the rest of the United States. Whitefish Bays historic architecture stock is no different. Beginning with the Greek Revival style, most major architectural styles of the nineteenth and twentieth century are seen in Whitefish Bay. This chapter includes a brief description of the major architectural styles evident in Whitefish Bay followed by examples of buildings of that particular style. A discussion of the prevalent building materials in Whitefish Bay is also included with several examples of buildings constructed of those materials. Lastly, a brief history of many of the architects, engineers, and contractors who worked in the area is included along with listings of buildings associated with those persons or firms. Architectural Styles Greek Revival The Greek Revival style is derived from historic Greek temples. It was one of the first recognized styles seen in Wisconsin, dating from 1840 to 1870. Because these buildings date so early in Wisconsins history, they were often wood framed as it was the only readily available material of the time. Its main elements include a formal and symmetrical arrangement of columns, which may be of the Doric, Ionic, or Corinthian order, that support a triangular shaped, low sloped pediment roof. The arrangement of the M. E. & Marion Newald House, 1928 fenestration is also regular and symmetrical. In some 1071 E. Circle Drive (Photo by LJM Architects) instances, Greek Revival style buildings have tall first floor windows topped by a pediment-shaped window head while the second floor windows are hidden into an enlarged frieze. The front entry door may be topped with a transom and flanked by sidelights. In simpler designs, the columns are translated into fluted pilaster corner boards and the gabled roofline has returned eaves.101 Although the Greek Revival buildings in Whitefish Bay tend to date from the later Period Revival era, examples of Greek Revival style buildings in Whitefish Bay include the following:

Gothic Revival The Gothic Revival style was popular in Wisconsin from 1850 to 1880. In its masonry form, it is a religious style and a residential style in its wood form. As opposed to the Greek Revival, this style is more picturesque in its form and massing. Characteristics of the style include steeply sloped roofs with wall dormers, sometimes with an ornate and shapely chimney projecting well above the roofline. Its gables may be trimmed in curvilinear gingerbread bargeboards. Fenestration is often large and pointed with tracery and colored glass and topped with a window hood. Masonry buildings of this style may have buttresses, battlements, and towers.102

Second Empire The Second Empire style was named after the French Second Empire reign of Napoleon III between 1852 and 1870. The Second Empire style was popular in Wisconsin from 1870 to 1880. A prominent characteristic of the style is a mansard roof, usually curbed around the top of the visible slope. Typically, buildings of this style are tall, either two or three stories; symmetrical in form; boldly modeled; and can be elaborately ornamented with details such as quoins, cornices, and belt courses. Windows are typically arched and pedimented; those on the first floor are usually very tall.103

Queen Anne The Queen Anne style was popular in Wisconsin from 1880 to 1910. This style is highlighted by its asymmetrical plan and massing and lavish surface decoration. Architectural elements that lend to the varied massing include towers, turrets, tall chimneys, large wrap-around porches, bays, and other projecting elements. Steeply sloped roofs with multiple gables and hips are evident in this style. Wall surfaces tend to be adorned with wood clapboards, scalloped fish scale shingles, stone, brick, as well as other ornamental details. The fenestration on these types of buildings is often irregular and may include a border of colored glazing in the upper sash of a double hung window.104

Prairie The Prairie Style is influenced by the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright and other architects in the Chicago based Prairie School, such as Whitefish Bay resident Russell Barr Williamson. It was popular in Wisconsin from 1895 to 1925 and is still used today. It is primarily a residential style which features a certain horizontal quality. This is evident in the low sloped roofs with wide soffits, horizontal banding of casement windows, and horizontal trim of accent materials in the faade. These buildings may be clad in brick with stone trim or stucco with dark wood trim. They have a large, low chimney or hearth which seemingly anchors the building to the ground.105

American Craftsman The American Craftsman style, descending from the English Arts and Crafts movement in the nineteenth century, was popular in Wisconsin from 1900 to 1920. Typically in Wisconsin, American Craftsman style houses are two and one-half stories in height and constructed of brick, stucco, or stone with contrasting wood bands. The style is distinguishable by its characteristic quality construction and simple exterior and interior detailing such as broad gable or hipped roofs, one or two large front dormers, decorative brackets or rafters, prominent chimneys, and simple sashes. Glazed sun porches or open wood pergolas are not uncommon in addition to the styles hallmark open porch and heavy piers.106

Bungalow From 1910 to 1940, the Bungalow style was popular in this state. Houses are classified in this style because of their plan, not because of their aesthetics. These buildings can appear in several variants. It can be one story or two stories. The roofs can be gabled or hipped and may have decorative, exposed rafter ends. If the house is one story, the roof is generally low sloped. If the house is two stories, the roof often starts above the first floor and is more steeply pitched to allow for the second floor. Features of Bungalow Style buildings include dominant fireplaces and chimney, exposed and exaggerated structural elements, and porches supported by massive piers. The exterior design is adaptable to

Period Revival Period Revival Styles were popular in Wisconsin from 1900 to 1940. As their name suggests, period revival styles are reminiscent of earlier styles. Due to coinciding era of popularity and period of development, a wealth of Period Revival Style buildings can be found in Whitefish Bay as described following: Colonial Revival The most prolific style in Whitefish Bay is the Colonial Revival style, as it became especially popular due to the restoration of Williamsburg, Virginia. It is most numerously exhibited in residential structures, typically two stories in height and faced with wood clapboards. The style is also characterized by gable roofs, dormers, simple columns and pilasters, denticulated cornices, and shutters. Most commonly rectangular in plan, later examples may assume an L-shaped form to accommodate a breezeway and garage. Due to the 1500 E. Henry Clay Street, 1939 styles simplicity and regularity, it lent itself well to (Photo by LJM Architects) standardization. Builders used a colonial sensibility for many houses in the early decades of the twentieth century.108 There are hundreds of Colonial Revival style homes in Whitefish Bay, including the following examples:

Georgian Revival Because of their reference to early American Georgian architecture, some forms of the Colonial Revival style are more properly referred to as Georgian Revival. These tend to be structures larger in scale and more richly finished than typical Colonial Revival buildings. Characteristic of the Georgian Revival style are formal symmetrical facades, rectangular plans, hipped roofs, and classical embellishments including denticulated cornices, elliptical fanlights, sidelights flanking doorways, Palladian windows, broken pediments, and classical columns. The Georgian Revival style, with a prominent steeple, also became a popular style for Protestant churches in the early twentieth century.109

Regency For their reference to ancient Greek or Roman architecture, some forms of the Colonial Revival style are more properly referred to as Regency style. Twentieth century revivals of the Regency style emulate English architecture from the first thirty years of the 19th century. Classical in nature, Regency style is based on the philosophies of ancient Greek and Roman architecture. Typical Regency style houses are The Concrete Demonstration House, 1940 covered on the exterior with stucco or painted plaster and

Windows are generally tall, thin, and often round headed, particularily those on the ground floor. During the Regency period, curved bow windows became popular.110 Examples of Regency Style buildings in Whitefish Bay include the following:

Dutch Colonial Revival The Dutch Colonial Revival style is less formal than the Colonial or Georgian Revival styles. Examples of the style are most easily identified by a gambrel roof, occasionally ending with deep, flared eaves. Clapboards, shingles, brick, and stone are materials commonly used in combination on the exteriors. The symmetry of the style is often offset by a small wing on either of the gable ends. The style was especially popular for small-scale residences in early twentieth Walter A. & Lillith S. Wadsworth House, 1927 century suburbs like Whitefish Bay. 111 4930 N.

with stucco or brick. Much rarer in the rest of Wisconsin, Whitefish Bay boasts several large and more formal Elizabethan Revival brick homes with stone accents and detailing. Another variant of the style in Whitefish Bay are smaller brick homes with an asymmetrical, steeply pitched, gabled entry. In either case, these homes are asymmetrical, but balanced in composition, irregular in plan, and have steeply sloped gable roofs and decorative casement windows.112 From 1928 to 1930, the John D. Edwards Company Edward F. & Erna M. Pritzlaff House, 1925 advertised themselves builders of Studi-O-Homes. 4725 N. Wilshire Road These were modest-sized and affordably priced Tudor (Photo by LJM Architects) Revival Style homes that utilized details typical of more elaborate and expensive homes. Their distinguishing feature was a prominent, gabled living room that extended perpendicularly from the front of the house. Two stories in height, it typically was accompanied by a second story library overlooking the living room. The company planned to construct fifty Studi-O-Homes in the Milwaukee area; it is unknown if this goal was ever reached.

This style was popularly applied to college campuses, high schools, and elementary school buildings throughout the early twentieth century. Typically, elementary and secondary schools exhibit a central entrance, battlements, finials, and other period ornament. Other characteristic Collegiate Gothic details include masonry construction, Gothic and Tudor arches, crenellated parapets, numerous steep and pinnacled gables, and heavily mullioned windows. 114 Whitefish Bay has a few fine examples of Collegiate Gothic Style buildings which include the following:

Mediterranean Revival: The Mediterranean Revival style is relatively rare in Wisconsin. Homes in this style are often architect designed and constructed of brick with stone trim. They may feature straight or arched openings, columns, stone balconies and porch railings, and low sloped, red clay tile, hipped roofs. The Mediterranean Revival style is often planned around a courtyard and exhibits flat wall surfaces, broken by arcading, terra cotta, plaster, or tile ornamentation, sometimes drawing on Judge Joseph A. & Lydia Padway House, 1931 classical motifs. This style is often used for both 5312 N. Lake Drive residential and commercial buildings. 115 (Photo by LJM Architects) There are an unusually high number of well-preserved Mediterranean Revival style residences in Whitefish Bay including the following:

Spanish Colonial Revival: The Spanish Colonial Revival style is even rarer than the Mediterranean Revival style in Wisconsin. Spanish Colonial Revival style buildings generally appear less restrained than Mediterranean Revival yet are also characterized by red tile roofs, heavy brackets, and flat wall surfaces, typically plastered, broken by arcading, terra cotta, plaster, or tile ornamentation. They also feature straight or arched openings, wrought iron balconies and porch railings, and low sloped, red clay tile hipped and gable roofs. The style can have a rustic Herbert & Mildred Pritzlaff House, 1926 demeanor and include mission-style elements such as 2033 E.

Monterrey: The Monterrey style is a more modern, simplified, and informal sub-set of Spanish Colonial Revival. It is characterized by a rectangular or L-shaped plan, flat masonry or stucco wall surfaces, and commonly Spanish Colonial Revival style elements such as heavy brackets and low sloped hipped roofs. The hallmark element of the Monterrey style is a covered second story balcony that runs along either three quarters of or the entire length of the main faade, seemingly supported by heavy brackets and commonly seen with heavily ornamental wrought iron columns and railings.

French Provincial: The style of medieval French country houses became popular during the twentieth century for American suburban houses. Originated during the reign of Louis XIV in France during the mid-1600s, the French Provincial style is easily identifiable by wide, symmetrical layouts and and steep, hipped roofs. Due to their commonly large size, homes of this style are often composed of a central hall and two identical wings. Common are shuttered windows, second story windows that interrupt the cornice and rise above the eaves, and rectangular front doors in arched openings that act as an anchor to a symmetrical faade.117

Art Moderne The Art Moderne style was popular in Wisconsin from 1930 to 1945. It had smooth wall finishes, and was streamlined. It featured rounded corners, horizontal banding, circular elements, and little to no surface decoration. What decoration did exist was focused at doorways and windows and consisted of metal or structural glass panels or trim. Aluminum and stainless steel were widely used materials in this style for doors, windows, railings, and balusters.118 Art Moderne styled buildings in Whitefish Bay include the following:

International Style The International Style was first defined by HenryRussell Hitchcock and Phillip Johnson in their 1932 publication, The International Style: Architecture Since 1922. They noted three principles of the style. The first is an emphasis on volume or space enclosed by thin planes instead of a suggestion of mass and solidity. Second was regularity, an underlying orderliness seen clearly before the outside surfaces are applied. The third principle was the avoidance of applied, surface decoration, instead depending on the intrinsic qualities John R. & Fannie Moore House, 1940 4773 N. Oakland Avenue of the materials, technical perfection, and proportions (Photo by LJM Architects) for aesthetic richness. Thus, International Style buildings do not imitate or recall past styles. Windows tend to be grouped in vertical or horizontal bands. Small scale residential examples of the style are small, cube-like structures, typically covered with glazed tile, stucco, brick, concrete block, or composition panels. If present, detailing is often of an Art Moderne influence.119 Although rare, Whitefish Bay has several fine examples of International Style architecture which include the following:

Ranch The Ranch style, which originated in California during the 1930s, reflects design for a more informal lifestyle. It became popular throughout the Uniteds States after World War II for single family suburban residences. It was used extensively in large and affordable suburban tract developments of the mid- to late twentieth century; however, such an application can not be found in Whitefish Bay. As with other contemporary styles, Ranch can be eclectic and may incorporate elements Dr. N. W. & Persephone Stathas House, 1962 of other historic styles. Some Ranch style homes 4629 N. Lake Drive echo the low profile of the Bungalow style; the wide, (Photo by LJM Architects) overhanging hip roofs of the Prairie style; and the minimalism and wrapped corner windows of the International Style. Ranch homes are typically single story or bi-level, often rambling with hipped or gabled roofs. They are generally rectangular, L-, or U-shaped in plan with horizontal and asymmetrical faades. Attached garages, sliding glass doors, and large picture windows are common features.120

Construction Materials and Methods Wood Because of its abundance in the area, wood was the primary material for construction in the early days of Whitefish Bay. Wood continued to be used for residential construction in the form of studs, rafters, clapboards, shingles, and shakes. Many of Whitefish Bays older historic buildings were originally sided with wood clapboard. Following is a list of extant wood framed and sided buildings that retain their historic integrity:

Stone Stone was a popular construction material in Whitefish Bay due to its fire resistive properties and aesthetic qualities. It was used in churches, schools, and high end houses. A wide variety of masonry construction techniques and stone types were used throughout Whitefish Bay. During the period of the large majority of Whitefishs development, limestone was considered one of the best materials for foundations and was also used extensively for window sills and other decorative trim on masonry buildings. On many high-quality residences in Whitefish Bay, limestone was used to cover partially or the entire faade. Limestone was quarried locally in the Milwaukee area. Brown, red, or tan colored sandstone was also commonly used in Whitefish Bay, almost exclusively, for trim and other carved ornaments. Marble and granite can be found less commonly on Whitefish Bay building exteriors, due to their higher cost and general rarity. Stone applications in Whitefish Bay employ a variety of different masonry patterns, including uncoursed fieldstone, uncoursed ledgerock, uncoursed roughly square, coursed ashlar, random coursed ashlar, and one-height patterns. While there are a few examples of more refined, smooth cut stone facades, the overwhelming majority of stone buildings in Whitefish Bay have rusticated stone facades, with rectangular or square building stones having a rough or rock face.

Jesse Claude Caraway Jesse Claude Caraway graduated with a Bachelors degree in Architecture from the University of Texas at Austin before becoming an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wrights at Taliesen in Spring Green, Wisconsin.124 He met his wife, Frances Marie, at Taliesen where she grew up as the daughter of another fellow, Herbert Fritz.125 Through his seven-year Taliesen fellowship, Caraway helped construct Taliesen West in Scottsdale, Arizona, and was heavily influenced by Wrights architectural ideologies including low building profiles, natural local materials, unique geometries, and spatial layouts. Willis E. Gifford, a successful contractor who worked with Wright on multiple projects, commissioned Wright to design a new home in Whitefish Bay for his retirement in 1949. Wright delegated the project to Caraway, however, but made several visits to the building site to check on progress and make suggestions.126 Following his time with Wright, Caraway worked as an architect for the University of Illinois in Chicago. Upon retirement, he returned to Wisconsin, living there until his death in 1994.127 Buildings associated with Jesse Claude Caraway in this survey include the following:

Clas, Shepherd & Clas Alfred Charles Clas, the son of German immigrants, was born in Sauk City, Wisconsin, in 1859. After graduating from high school in 1875, Clas apprenticed under a Milwaukee architect and received instruction in the building trade. In 1879, Clas went to California and worked at Percey & Hamilton in San Francisco. From 1880 to 1882, Clas established a private practice in Stockton, California. He moved back to Milwaukee in 1883 to work for James O. Douglas and in 1890 began a partnership with George B. Ferry. The firm was known as Ferry & Clas Architects. In addition to the award winning designs of the Milwaukee Public Library, Milwaukee Tripoli Temple, and Wisconsin State Historical Library in Madison, the firm also designed a number of residences including the Frederick Pabst House. The firm was dissolved in 1912; at which time Alfred formed the firm Clas & Clas with his son Angelo Robert. By 1921, Angelo left to pursue a career in Chicago, and eventually Washington D.C. 128 Another son, Rubens Frederick Clas who was born in 1891, studied engineering at the University of Wisconsin in Madison from 1910 to 1912 before working for his father, In 1917, Rubens moved to Chicago where he worked for Lockwood, Greene & Company and Frank D. Chase. In 1921, Rubens returned to Milwaukee to form Clas, Shepherd & Clas with his father and John S. Shepherd. It was during this time that they designed several houses in Whitfish Bay. In 1931, Shepherd withdrew, and the firm was reorganized under the name Clas & Clas again. 129 Alfred retired to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 1939, returning to Wisconsin shortly before his death in 1942. Alfred Charles Class career would lead to extensive involvement with the local and state parks systems, City and County of Milwaukee planning commissions, commissions for the construction of the Wisconsin State Capitol and the Milwaukee County Courthouse, and chartering of the Wisconsin chapter of the American Institute of Architects. 130 Sometime after his fathers retirement, Rubens partnered with Arthur O.

Ernest Flagg Ernest Flagg, born in 1857, was educated at the cole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Practicing from New York, he is best known for designing the Singer Tower in New York. However, as cost of construction soared during the 1920s, Flagg developed a system by which to construct small residences affordable for the average American. Flaggs ideas were admired by Milwaukee buider, Arnold F. Meyer, who visited Flagg in New York and returned to construct houses with this system in Milwaukee. 25 are known to exist in Milwaukee County, 12 of which were constructed in Whitefish Bay.143 Characteristic of Flagg houses are dormers, to help avoid excessive appearance of height yet allow high amounts of daylight to the interior, as well as mosaic rubble exterior walls, with stones placed dry into forms with mortar squeezed into the joints after construction like a mosaic.144 The Whitefish Bay Flagg houses are mostly located within the proposed Lake Woods & Ortonwood Triangle Residential Historic District and the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District; all twelve are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

John D. Edwards Company John Douglas Edwards was born in Spencer, Iowa, in 1893. In 1918, he came to Milwaukee to work in sales and promotions. In 1922, he briefly worked in the Securities Department of the Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Company. Edwards established the John D. Edwards Company in 1925 with Charles H. Blackburn and Edward W. Strauss. By 1929, architects Wesley H. Hess and George A. Kemnitz were employed by the company. Several of Edwards houses surveyed in Whitefish Bay have been attributed to Hess designs; however, no houses known to be designed by Kemnitz were included in the survey. From 1928 to 1930, the John D. Edwards Company advertised themselves as building what they called Studi-O-Homes. These were modest-sized and affordably priced homes, in the Tudor Revival Style, that utilized details typical of more elaborate and expensive homes. The prominent feature of these homes was a prominent, gabled living room that extended perpendicularly from the front of the house. Two stories in height, it typically was accompanied by a second story library overlooking the living room. The company planned to construct fifty Studi-O-Homes in the Milwaukee area; however, it is unknown if this goal was ever reached. Seventeen of Edwards Studi-O-Homes have been identified in Whitefish Bay. The John D. Edwards Company boasts of having built over 1,000 houses in the Milwaukee Area. After 1943 and the death of Edwards, the company was reorganized under Johns son, Douglas Edwards. 169 A large number of the buildings Edwards built in Whitefish Bay are of the Tudor Revival style and located in the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District.

Frances J. Schroedel Construction Company The Frances J. Schroedel Construction Company was advertised in the 1958-59 Whitefish Bay Village Directory.175 Before that time, the company constructed and managed a large apartment complex named Estabrook Homes just across village limits in Shorewood. During the 1940s, the company began purchasing property that was newly annexed into the village of Whitefish Bay on which to construct a multi-family residential development. Controversy surrounded the rezoning of this property from multi- to single-family residential; litigation ensued. In 1950, after winning an appeal to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Schroedel was granted building permits to construct the Bay Village Apartments, which comprise a large portion of the proposed Village Residential Historic District. 176 Buildings associated with the Frances J. Schroedel Construction Company in this survey include:

Education
Introduction The primary reason behind Whitefish Bays formation and incorporation as a village was the subject of education. The areas first school was a log cabin erected in 1846 located on the present site of Shorewood High School. By the 1890s, the two-room Lyons School, also known as Lindwerm School, was Whitefish Bays closest school located in the present City of Glendale east of the Union Cemetery between Lydell Avenue and Port Washington Road, a several mile walk for some of the settlements children.180 Attempts at changing the then Town of Milwaukee school districts existing boundaries were unsuccessful, causing Whitefish Bay residents to seek incorporation during the summer of 1892. That November, the Whitefish Bay School District was created. Until completion of its first school building, classes were taught to fifty students in the Jefferson Park Pavilion during warm months and Lewis Schiefes store through the winter. From these beginnings, the public school district grew to include one primary school, two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. Additionally, several parochial and private schools were established within the village.181 Primary Education Cumberland Elementary School As the village of Whitefish Bay grew in the early twentieth century, the need for additional schools became eminent. Planning efficiently for the future, the school district hired professional consultants to complete a growth survey in the mid-1920s. Their findings projected the maximum population of the village to be 20,214. They estimated that to serve a projected maximum enrollment of 3,300 students, two more elementary schools would eventually be required in addition to the existing Henry Clay School. It had also been decided to continue housing the sixth through eighth grades in neighborhood elementary schools rather than constructing a single central middle school which would cause some students to have to walk longer distances or take public transportation. 182 In 1927, the first of these two new schools to be built was Humboldt School, constructed for approximately $187,000 on 11.5 acres on Humboldt Avenue purchased from the Praefke family farm. It served the southern portion of the village. Both Humboldt and Richards Schools were built using the same plan, constructed of concrete, and faced with brick and Bedford stone. Both schools were designed as three units: the original central unit with a wing on each side to be constructed as the need for more classrooms arose. In 1932 due to confusion with Humboldt School in Milwaukee, also on what was then Humboldt Avenue, the school changed its name to 111

Cumberland School, after the Cumberland Forest neighborhood in which the school is located. The name was chosen by a school-wide vote among four names submitted by students. The first wing added onto Cumberland School in 1938 was for six additional classrooms, new administrative offices, music rooms, a library, a basement cafeteria and kitchen, and a 150-seat theater. It was partially funded by the federal WPA program. Further additions were constructed to the school to accommodate the baby boomers in 1951 for eight classrooms and a new gymnasium and again in 1958 for a combination gymnasium and auditorium. In 1989, the school district reorganized, at which time Cumberland Schools sixth through eighth grades were moved to the new Whitefish Bay Middle School, located in the former Henry Clay School. Since this time, Cumberland School has served kindergarten through fifth grade. In 2010, construction began on a new cafeteria wing. 183 Humboldt School, located at 4780 N. Marlborough Drive, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Collegiate Gothic style architecture, in spite of its several additions and alterations. Fleetwood School In August 1892, a triangular half-acre piece of land bounded by Birch Avenue, Marlborough Drive, Idlewild Avenue, and Fleetwood Place was donated to the village for a school by John E. Mann, Richard Burke, and the Tweedy Land Company. Soon after, Whitefish Bays first school was built by John Kohlmetz for $6,000. Mrs. H. K. Curtis was hired to teach fifty children. The two-story, wood frame building housed four classrooms on its first floor and an auditorium on the second. In 1912, a one story addition provided two more classrooms. Fleetwood School was completely destroyed by fire in 1918, and today the site has become Schoolhouse Park. 184 Henry Clay School After the burning of the Fleetwood School in 1918, classes were again held in the Jefferson Park Pavilion until a new school building was completed on 2.5 acres of land adjacent to Jefferson Park on E. Henry Clay Street, a more central location within the village. It was named Henry Clay School and contained eight classrooms and an auditorium. The original building was constructed of concrete, faced with brick and Bedford stone, and built in the center of Henry Clay School the lot to provide plentiful room for playground (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) space. In 1924, east and west wings were completed adding a dining hall, kitchen, and gymnasium. After Cumberland and Richards Schools were built, Henry Clay School served the central portion of the village for first through eighth grades. In 1950, 1951, and 1953, various renovations and additions to the building were completed, including a new cafeteria and gymnasium. By the 1980s, Henry Clay School was closed due to declining enrollment in the district. Cumberland and Richards Schools remained

112

the districts primary schools, while the Henry Clay building was used as a community center. The school district reorganized in 1989, at which time the former Henry Clay School became Whitefish Bay Middle School, housing the districts sixth through eighth grades. Henry Clay School, located at 1144 E. Henry Clay Street, was not included in the survey as its multiple additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture. Holy Family Catholic School Holy Family Catholic Church and School was established in 1949. The Holy Family School building was completed by the Meredith Brothers in 1953. After which time, masses took place in its basement gymnasium-auditorium until the current church building was completed in 1969. In 1960, a convent was constructed adjacent to the school to house the sisters there. 185 Holy Family Parish School located at 4849 N. Wildwood Avenue, Holy Family Convent at 4825 N. Wildwood Avenue, and Holy Family Catholic Church and Rectory at 4815 N. Wildwood Avenue and 4810 N. Marlborough Drive were all included in the survey and found eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic for the significance of their Contemporary style architecture. Together these three buildings comprise the proposed Holy Family Complex. Lydell Elementary School In 1950, 7.2 acres of land were purchased for $21,900 by the Whitefish Bay School District in the adjacent City of Glendale. This land was once considered for the development of a new neighborhood park, which the Villages southwest side was considered to be lacking at the time. Initial proposals for a school at this site were rejected by voters in 1951. Three years later the land was annexed into the village, and Lydell School was built in 1955. The school served as an elementary school, housing kindergarten through third grade classes to alleviate enrollment strain at the villages other elementary schools. Until this point in time, all of Whitefish Bays schools had been constructed in a traditional and ornate Collegiate Gothic style. Lydell School was designed in a minimal, Contemporary style after the previous years school board decision to construct all new schools in a more economic and functional architecture. The brick L-shaped building houses 10 classrooms, a multi-purpose room, and administrative offices. During the early 1980s, plans to introduce fourth grade classes to Lydell School were dropped. Due to declining enrollment, the district reorganized, and Lydell School was closed in 1989. At this time, it came to house the community center that had been displaced from the former Henry Clay School, upon its reopening as the Whitefish Bay Middle School. 186 Lydell School, located at 5205 N. Lydell Avenue, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Contemporary style architecture.

Milwaukee Country Day School The Milwaukee Country Day School, a private school for boys, was an outgrowth of earlier schools in Milwaukee. In 1911, several fathers persuaded A. Gledden Santer to found a day school in Milwaukee. Located at Farwell and Ogden Avenues and named St. Bernards, it housed high school grades. Soon thereafter, an elementary school began on Brady Street, and in 1919, moved to the old Lakeside Hospital located on Prospect Avenue at Woodstock Place. In 1916, 24 acres of land were purchased for expansion in Whitefish Bay to follow the country day school model popular at that time. The purpose of which was to provide boys with the school life of a boarding school without separating them from the influences of home life, made possible by locating the school in the country on the outskirts of a city. Only the kindergarten at the Milwaukee Country Day School was co-ed, and each class was limited to less than 25 students. 187 The Senior School, housing grades eight through twelve, opened in Whitefish Bay for fall of 1917. It was constructed of brick in the Tudor Revival style at 6401 N. Santa Monica Boulevard. A gymnasium addition was constructed on the west side of the Senior School in 1919 for $50,000. $120,000 was spent on remodeling in 1935..188 Demand for accommodation of out-of-town students was finally met in 1926, when the school began renting a house on the 6 acre George P. Dravo estate at the northeast corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and School Road in adjacent Fox Point. Later purchasing the property, the two-story house on was remodeled into a dormitory to house fifteen students. Plans were made to construct a row of masters houses on the site as well. A home on Santa Monica Boulevard was purchased for the headmaster around 1943. However, the schools boarding program ended just before World War II when a student sleepwalked onto a terrace and plunged to his death. Not long after, the school sold the dormitory. 189 The Junior School, housing the kindergarten through grade seven, continued to be taught on Prospect Avenue until a new building was constructed on the Whitefish Bay campus in 1931 at 6255 N. Santa Monica Boulevard. It was constructed for $180,000 with major donations from Irving Seaman, Charles Wright, George P. Miller, and L. R. Smith. The Junior Schools brick and stone building was designed in the Tudor Revival style by architect Fitzhugh Scott; it was Ushaped, with a two-story center and one-story wings. Cloistered arches lined the inner courtyard through which the classrooms were individually accessed. Each classroom of the Junior School was uniquely finished with different species of wood, unique light fixtures, and individually designed fireplaces. In addition to classrooms, the Junior School also housed a library, auditorium, and dining hall. In 1933, funded by the sale of the Prospect Avenue Lakeside Hospital property, a $125,000 addition, also designed by Fitzhugh Scott, added 15 classrooms, a swimming pool, and a new library. 190 The Milwaukee Country Day Schools spacious grounds offered space for baseball and football fields, three tennis courts, and two hockey rinks. Originally, a small orchard was located north of the Junior School. During the summer of 1935, a wading pool, fireplace, and fountain were installed as a memorial on the grounds, donated by the parents of a former student. 191

As most of the schools students and faculty lived in the City of Milwaukees Lower East Side, the school relied heavily on the Lake Drive trolley line ending at School Road, which was nicknamed the Yellow Streak. For more information on the trolley line, refer to Chapter 6, Transportation.192 During the Great Depression, the opening up of enrollment to girls was considered but never implemented; negotiations had even begun for merger with the Lake School for Girls. A brief discussion of merger with the Downer Seminary occurred in1940, but was soon dropped. However, the Milwaukee Country Day School merged with the Milwaukee Downer Seminary and Milwaukee University School in 1964. The new schools female campus was located at the Milwaukee University Schools facilities at 2100 W. Fairy Chasm Road in Fox Point. Country Days remodeled campus went on to serve as the new University Day Schools male campus. In 1970, the former University Day Senior School building was renamed and reorganized as the University School of Milwaukees co-ed high school campus. Co-ed elementary and middle school grades were taught in Fox Point until all of the University Day Schools campuses were consolidated to Fox Point in 1985. Later that year, the University Day School properties on Santa Monica Boulevard were sold to the Milwaukee Jewish Federation for $2.7 million to become their Max and Anita Karl Community Campus. For more information on the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, refer to Chapter 10, Religion.193 The Milwaukee Country Day Junior School located at 6255 N. Santa Monica Boulevard and the Milwaukee Country Day Senior School located at 6401 N. Santa Monica Boulevard were both included in the survey. However, both are not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places as their multiple additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of their original Tudor Revival style architecture. Milwaukee Jewish Day School The Milwaukee Jewish Day School was founded in 1981. It serves kindergarten through the eighth grade. In 1987, the school relocated from 2419 E. Kenwood Boulevard in Milwaukee to the Karl Community Campus of the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, on the site of the former Milwaukee Country Day School on Santa Monica Boulevard in Whitefish Bay. At this time, the school was located in what had been renamed the Soref Building at 6255 N. Santa Monica Boulevard. After eighteen months, the school moved to its current building at 6401 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, renamed after Max and Mary Kohl who donated $1 million for the buildings renovation. Also presently located in the Kohl Education Building are the Milwaukee Association for Jewish Education and the Hillel Academy, another private elementary school. For more information on the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, refer to Chapter 10, Religion. 194 North Suburban Lutheran School In 1930, a combined church and school building was constructed for $30,000 at 116 W. Silver Spring Drive for what is now Our Savior Lutheran Church. This building, now non-extant, originally housed a single school room on the first floor, a chapel above on the second, and

115

recreation rooms in the basement. It opened for classes the fall of 1931, offering only the first and second grades; each year following, the subsequent grade was added until the eighth grade was reached. Sometime during the 1930s, the school was renamed the North Suburban Lutheran School as it began to enroll children from other nearby Lutheran congregations. In 1948, the school was consolidated with St. Johns Lutheran School in Glendale when the church relocated to Santa Monica Boulevard. For more information on Our Savior Lutheran Church refer to Chapter 10, Religion. 195 Richards Elementary School In 1928, Whitefish Bays third elementary school, Richards School, was constructed for approximately $242,000 on 5.5 acres of land. It served kindergarten through eighth grade students in the northern portion of the village. It was built using the same plan as Humboldt School, constructed of concrete, and faced with brick and Bedford stone. Both schools were designed as three units: the original central unit with a wing on each side to be constructed as the need for more classrooms arose. The construction of the first of these wings soon after the schools opening helped house the villages ninth grade students in 1930, as well as the tenth grade the following school year, during the transition away from attending Shorewood High School before the completion of Whitefish Bay High School in 1932. Additions were constructed to Richards School in 1951 for classrooms and again in 1958 for a combination gymnasium and auditorium. In 1989, the school district reorganized, at which time Richards Schools sixth through eighth grades were moved to the new Whitefish Bay Middle School, located in the former Henry Clay School. Richards School serves kindergarten through fifth grade to present day. In 2010, construction began on a new cafeteria wing. 196 Richards School, located at 5812 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for its Collegiate Gothic style architecture, in spite of its numerous additions and alterations. St. Monica Catholic School St. Monica School, designed by A. C. Runzler at the cost of $100,000, began construction in 1927. It opened for grades one through eight in the fall of 1928, and was staffed by lay teachers and Sisters of the order of Immaculate Heart of Mary from Monroe, Michigan. Two of its prominent architectural features are the octagonal library and chimney disguised as an Italian campanile. The parish used its basement as a sanctuary until 1939. In 1931, the first changes to the school building occurred in the addition of a 65-foot-tall belfry to house the churchs new collection of bells as well as an addition housing a new dining room, school offices, storage, and a first floor doctors clinic. The school received a classroom and gymnasium addition in 1950. Connected to the school, the St. Monica Convent was also completed that year to house the sisters who taught there. 197 St. Monica School located at 5635 N. Santa Monica Boulevard and the St. Monica Convent at 5681 N. Santa Monica Boulevard were both included in the survey and found eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic for the significance of their Mediterranean Revival style architecture. These buildings together with St. Monica Catholic Church at 160 E. Silver Spring

116

Drive, St. Monica Church Rectory also at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive, Dominican High School at 120 E. Silver Spring Drive, and the Dominican Convent at 135 E. Lake View Avenue comprise the proposed St. Monica Catholic Church and Dominican High School Complex. Secondary Education Dominican High School In 1952, St. Monica Catholic Church joined with St. Robert parish in Shorewood to found Dominican High School at 120 E. Silver Spring Drive. St. Monica donated the eight and a half acre site, as well as ten acres on Lydell Avenue for use as athletic fields. The three-story high school building was designed by Alvin Grellinger of Grellinger, Brimeyer, and Rose Architects, and was constructed of brick and concrete at the cost of $3,100,000. It opened for classes in the fall of 1956, with 27 classrooms, administrative offices, a cafeteria, library, 1,500-seat auditorium, and gymnasium. In 1960, a convent was constructed next door at 135 E. Lake View Avenue to house the sisters who taught at the high school. The sites original farmhouse, located at 134 E. Silver Spring Drive, was utilized as a rectory by the Dominican High School chaplains. It was demolished in 1982 for increased parking space for the high school.198 Dominican High School at 120 E. Silver Spring Drive and the Dominican Convent at 135 E. Lake View Avenue were both included in the survey and found eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic for the significance of their Contemporary style architecture. These buildings together with St. Monica Catholic Church at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive, St. Monica Church Rectory also at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive, St. Monica School at 5635 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, and the St. Monica Convent at 5681 N. Santa Monica Boulevard comprise the proposed St. Monica Catholic Church and Dominican High School Complex. Whitefish Bay High School Prior to 1927, the closest high school to Whitefish Bay was Milwaukees Riverside High School. After its opening in 1927, Whitefish Bay students attend Shorewood High School on Capital Drive. However, by 1930, Shorewood High School was so crowded that starting with the freshman class that year, students from outside of Shorewood were no longer accepted. Fortunately, Whitefish Bays school board had anticipated this and, in 1927, purchased 14 acres of the now non-extant Armorys grounds for $80,000 from the Wisconsin National Guard. The board pushed construction of Richards Elementary School so that it could house high school students while the high school itself was under construction. Richards School was home to the ninth grade in 1930, as well as the tenth grade the following school year. Whitefish Bay High School opened to reunite all four grades under one roof at 1200 E. Fairmount Avenue in the fall of 1932. The new high school served students from Fox Point and Town of Milwaukee who had also previously attended Shorewood High School as well as students from as far away as Thiensville. 199 The high schools original design was for a building consisting of five units, built overtime as expansion was required. The center unit and a west wing were the only portions of the original plan to be realized; it was designed by Herbert W. Tullgren and constructed of reinforced

117

concrete, steel, face brick, and Bedford stone by Pail Riesen at the cost of $432,000. At its opening the school contained 26 classrooms, laboratories, a library, cafeteria, gymnasium, school store, administrative offices, and a third-story auditorium. The buildings main architectural feature was a central entrance tower faced in carved stone; the spacious lobbys floor featured a green and black inlaid stone map of the world. The original grounds featured tennis courts facing Henry Clay Street, a track with bleachers, football and baseball fields, and a field house. 200 In 1948, the Memorial Gymnasium wing housing a new gymnasium; recreation rooms; handball courts; rifle range, swimming pool; locker rooms; and music, home economics, and study rooms was completed in dedication to graduates who served in World War II. A north classroom wing and 1,200-seat theater wing on the schools east side were designed by Grassold, Johnson & Associates and constructed by C. J. Schmidt in 1956. In 1967, construction by the Joseph P. Jansen Company started on a large wing designed by architect Fitzhugh Scott Jr. to the north side of the school that provided more classrooms, a new field house, and a new swimming pool. Renovations and additions to the Theater wing began in 2010. 201 Whitefish Bay High School, located at 1200 E. Fairmount Avenue, was included in the survey. However, it is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places as its multiple additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original Collegiate Gothic style architecture. Post-Secondary Education While the purpose of the public and private high schools located in the village throughout Whitefish Bays history has been college and career preparation for its residents, there has never been a college or university located within the village limits. However, Whitefish Bay residents have access to multiple institutions of higher education within the greater Milwaukee area. The following are colleges and universities near Whitefish Bay:

Libraries Whitefish Bay Public Library Whitefish Bay established its first public library in 1937, originally located in the basement of the old village hall. The library was provided with its own building designed by George F. Spinti and constructed by W.H. Schroeder & Company, located at its current site along Marlborough Drive, in 1955. The new building was 8,000 square feet and had a 35,000 volume capacity; at that time the librarys collection contained 10,000 books. Consolidation with the Shorewood Public Library was considered in 1995; however, both libraries continue operating independently today. The next year, a renovation of the former armory, now non-extant, was proposed to house the expanding library; however, this concept was abandonned due to concerns of enivornmental contamination at the armory site. Instead, the village began a compain to raise $3 million in private funds to construct a new library building as the librarys collection contained to grow and counted over 55,000 items by 2001. By 2002, the old library was demolished and that year a new library designed by Uihlein Wilson Architects opened on the same site.202 Since the 1950s, the library has presented story times, book discussions, art displays, author panels, and other shows among other literary and educational services to the public.

Social & Political Movements
Introduction Throughout Whitefish Bays history, local residents have been involved with multiple community, social, and political organizations. Several of these organizations grew to a size at which they could support constructing and maintaining their own meeting places; these buildings became prominent locations for community gatherings in the village.204 Womens Organizations League of Women Voters During the 1960s, a group named the League of Women Voters was active in Whitefish Bay.205 Since that time the group has been absorbed into the League of Women Voters of Milwaukee County, a nonpartisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation in government, which remains active to this day. The organization continues to provide unbiased, nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and key issues to voters and advocates for or against policies in the public interest based on their values of respect for individuals, diversity, and integrity.206 No further information is known about the Whitefish Bay Chapter at this time. No historic resources were found to be associated with this group. Whitefish Bay Womens Club The Whitefish Bay Womens Club was organized in 1917 and remains active to this day. In its first year, 25 members set a precedent for commitment to non-partisan political involvement by taking up womens suffrage. Locally, the club was instrumental in the establishment of the Whitefish Bay Fire Department, Whitefish Bay Public Library, and the Whitefish Bay School Districts kindergarten program. For more information on the fire department and local library, refer to Chapter 4 Government and Chapter 8 Education respectively. A clubhouse was constructed on Henry Clay Street sometime prior to 1964. Throughout its history the organization has also served social, volunteering, and philanthropic purposes. In addition to activity sessions such as bridge games, stitching circles, golf, crafts, book reviews, and luncheons, the group is active in community fundraising, providing scholarships, and supporting local charities such as Badger Girls State, Junior Achievement, and the Whitefish Bay Foundation. In 1995, the club was comprised of over 400 members making it the largest Womens Club in Wisconsin. 207 The Whitefish Bay Womens Club Clubhouse, located at 600 E. Henry Clay Street, was included in the survey but is not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. 121

Fraternal Organizations Freemasons By 1920, many Freemasons lived in Whitefish Bay and belonged to the Grand Lodge of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. Around that time, a lodge was proposed for Whitefish Bay and several meetings were held at the drugstore of Howard Thompson, one of the Whitefish Bay lodges founding members. The Silver Spring Lodge 337, Free and Accepted Masons, was officially chartered in 1926. The lodge gathered at the Whitefish Bay Community Church, located at 819 E. Silver Spring Drive. In 1942, the lodge rented the old Christ Episcopal Church located at the Silver Spring Masonic Lodge No. 337, 1964 southeast corner of Beaumont Avenue and Consaul Place, (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) which that church had been using as a fellowship hall after the current Christ Episcopal Church was completed across the street the prior year. The lodge purchased the old church by 1948. The old church was demolished in 1964, to make way for the current Silver Spring Masonic Lodge No. 337 which was constructed on the same site. 208 The Freemasons still meet in this location to this day. The Silver Spring Masonic Lodge No. 337, located 517 E. Beaumont Avenue, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Colonial Revival style architecture and its role in the villages social movements. Service and Social Groups Lions Club International The Whitefish Bay Lions Club was established in 1951. Originally chartered as the Bay Shore Lions Club, the name was changed in the 1960s as the Village of Whitefish Bay became the focus of the clubs activities. During the clubs first two decades, it partnered with the Whitefish Bay Police Department to promote and aid in bicycle registration. The club also sponsored and installed 60 individual American flags along Silver Spring Drive for the Fourth of July. In the fall of 1965, the club financed and installed the flag pole that still stands today at the intersection of Silver Spring Drive and Diversey Boulevard.209 Since that time, the Whitefish Bay Lions Club has been absorbed into the North Milwaukee Lions Club.210 No historic resources were found to be associated with this group. Kiwanis International The North Shore Kiwanis Club was chartered in 1950. Throughout its history, the service club has been comprised of members from Whitefish Bay, Shorewood, Fox Point, Bayside, River Hills, and Glendale.211 Today, the club meets at Hubbard Lodge, located at 3565 N Morris Boulevard in Shorewood. 212 No historic resources were found to be associated with this group.

Religion
Introduction For a long time after its settlement, Whitefish Bay remained a rural community and consequently the early settlers had to worship at churches in the City of Milwaukee or in private homes. It was not until the early 1890s that several small groups of different Christian denominations formed and began meeting locally in Whitefish Bay. The first churches to organize in the village initially served residents of other neighboring, and then developing, areas including Shorewood, Fox Point, River Hills, and Mequon.228 Baptist Roundy Memorial Baptist Church In 1927, the need for another church in the growing village was recognized by the Milwaukee Council of Churches. In the early 1930s, a group began meeting in private homes. Land was purchased in 1931 at the corner of Hampton Road and Ardmore Avenue for $11,200 for a church site, and the small congregation became known as Ardmore Baptist Church. In September 1933, they held their first service at the nearby non-extant Whitefish Bay Armory. By 1936, the congregation incorporated and renamed as Roundy Memorial Baptist Church, named in tribute to Judson A. Roundy, founder of what is now Roundys Supermarkets, an active Baptist who bequested half of his estate to the Wisconsin State Baptist Convention to promote Baptist churches throughout Wisconsin. The congregations first pastor was Rev. Ernest Hasselblad. A two-story building was completed by Adam Schmitt and Sons, as designed by Willis Leenhouts, in 1938 for $20,000. A parsonage was built at 4789 N. Woodburn Avenue; and in 1951, a large addition was built to increase the sanctuarys capacity.229 Roundy Memorial Baptist Church, located at 4819 N. Ardmore Avenue, was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places as its addition and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original Gothic Revival style architecture. The Roundy Memorial Baptist Chruch Rectory, located at 4789 N. Woodburn Avenue, was not included in the survey as additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture.

Catholic St. Monica Roman Catholic Church St. Monica Catholic Church was established by Archbishop Messmer, who appointed Rev. Peter Ernst Dietz as rector. The first mass was held in on Christmas Day of 1923 at the non-extant, old Village Hall on Lexington Boulevard. A permanent place of worship was desired by the small congregation with limited means. Within one year, Rev. Dietz purchased the 5.7 acre homestead of Leonard Fleming at the corner of Silver Spring Drive and Santa Monica Boulevard and the 10 acre farm of Bernard Geilfuss immediately to the west. Together, the properties contained two houses and a barn. At the cost of $5,500, the Geilfuss barn was converted into a chapel, with an old fireplace as an altar, the hayloft becoming the choir loft, and a chicken coop repurposed as a confessional. The hand-hewn beams were stained olive green, and the exterior finished with cream-colored stucco. Before construction, there was strong objection to a barn being converted into a church; but after, the chapel was regarded by many as one of the most charming and intimate places of worship in southeastern Wisconsin. It was dedicated on May 4, 1924, the Catholic feast day of St. Monica. This chapel was used for weekly services for the next four to five years until a new worship space was provided in the new school building. After which, it was still utilized as a chapel until its demolition in the late 1960s. 230 The parish of St. Monica had grand building aspirations from the outset. The original plans included a large church, convent, grade school, high school, gymnasium, hospital, and center for the study and creation of religious art. All were to be designed as one block of Mediterraneanstyled architecture, forming a central courtyard and connected by a colonnade. While a hospital association was formed around 1930, neither the hospital nor the art center were ever built. 231 The first unit of these plans completed was St. Monica School, designed by A. C. Runzler and located at 5635 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, at the cost of $100,000. Construction began in 1927, and it opened for classes in the fall of 1928 staffed by lay teachers and Sisters of the Order of Immaculate Heart of Mary from Monroe, Michigan. Two of its prominent architectural features are the octagonal library and chimney disguised as an Italian campanile. Originally, the parish used its basement St. Monica School as a sanctuary. In 1931, the first changes to the (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) school building occurred with the addition of a 65foot-tall belfry to house the churchs new collection of bells as well as an addition to house a new dining room, school offices, storage, and a first floor doctors clinic. The school received a classroom and gymnasium addition in 1950. Construction of the current St. Monica Church, located at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive and designed by E. Brielmaier & Sons Architects, started construction in 1938, but was not completed until 1955 due to the Great Depression and World War II. The current churchs

126

sanctuary has a capacity of almost 1,300. The basement, upon which the new church was completed, was used as a church in the interim. 232 The original Fleming house, now non-extant, had been moved from its original location on St. Monica Boulevard to a new location on Lake View Avenue where it was used as the schools convent. Connected to the school as a replacement, the extant St. Monica Convent was completed in 1950 and is located at 5681 N. Santa Monica Boulevard. A house was built at 5674 N. Santa Monica Boulevard in 1949 for the parishs maintenance engineer. 233 In 1952, St. Monica Parish joined with St. Robert parish in Shorewood to found Dominican High School, which was constructed at 120 E. Silver Spring Drive. St. Robert donated $200,000 for construction, while St. Monica donated the eight and one-half acre site as well as ten acres on Lydell Avenue for use as athletic fields. The original Geilfuss farmhouse was located at 134 E. Silver Spring Drive and was utilized as a rectory by the Dominican High School chaplains. It was demolished in 1982 for increased parking space for the high school. The new parish rectory, at 140 E. Silver Spring Drive, was completed in 1959. 234 St. Monica parish spurred the formation of two new congregations, contributing 375 parishioners to the formation of Holy Family Catholic Church in Whitefish Bay in 1949 and 475 parishioners to help form St. Eugene Catholic Church in Fox Point in 1957. 235 St. Monica Catholic Church at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive, St. Monica Church Rectory also at 160 E. Silver Spring Drive, St. Monica School located at 5635 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, St. Monica Convent at 5681 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, Dominican High School at 120 E. Silver Spring Drive, and the Dominican Convent at 135 E. Lake View Avenue were all included in the survey and found eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic for the significance of their Mediterranean Revival or Contemporary style architecture. Together these buildings comprise the proposed St. Monica Catholic Church and Dominican High School Complex. Holy Family Catholic Church Holy Family Catholic Church was formed in 1949 under the Rev. George H. Wollet, with a total combination of 600 families from those within the southern boundaries of St. Monicas congregation and northern boundaries of St. Roberts. Originally, masses were held in the lobby of Whitefish Bay High School with special ceremonies held at the original St. Monica chapel. The Holy Family School building was constructed by the Meredith Brothers in 1953. After which, masses took place in its basement gymnasium-auditorium until the current church and rectory building was built by Michael Mravik in 1969. In 1960, a convent was constructed adjacent to the school. 236 Holy Family Parish School located at 4849 N. Wildwood Avenue, Holy Family Convent at 4825 N. Wildwood Avenue, and Holy Family Catholic Church and Rectory at 4815 N. Wildwood Avenue and 4810 N. Marlborough Drive were all included in the survey and found eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic for the significance of their Contemporary style architecture. Together these three buildings comprise the proposed Holy Family Complex.

Church of Christ, Scientists First Church of Christ Scientist Meeting in private homes since November 1942, the first official Christian Scientist services were held in Whitefish Bay in 1943 in a rented storefront at 627 E. Henry Clay Street. Soon after, a second storefront was rented next door to accommodate Sunday school classes that were previously being held at Henry Clay School. In 1945, the congregation purchased land across the street which was soon determined to be insufficient in size. In 1947, the church sold this land on Henry Clay Street to the Whitefish Bay Womens Club for construction of its clubhouse and purchased a larger property at the corner of Silver Spring Drive and Danbury Road. Completed in 1951 as designed by architect Hugo C. Haueser, the first services in the current First ChurchChrist Scientist were held that December. The facility, located at 721 E. Silver Spring Drive, included a two-story education wing. The sanctuary was designed with opera-style seating instead of pews and seats 400. The churchs pipe organ, originally from the Uihlein House on Lake Drive, was donated by the Claudia Uihlein. A Christian Scientist Reading Room, which was originally located in the Henry Clay storefront church and then moved into the new church library, opened at the Fox Bay Theatre Building on Silver Spring Drive in January of 1967. 237 First Church-Christ Scientist, located at 721 E. Silver Spring Drive, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Colonial Revival style architecture. Episcopal St. Clement Episcopal Mission In 1894, a group of Episcopalians organized themselves and held their first church services in private homes throughout the village and at Jefferson Hall, a pavilion in the old Jefferson Park. The group soon became established as an official mission of the Episcopal Church and was named after St. Clement. By August of 1895, the mission raised the $1,800 needed to build a chapel on Silver Spring Drive. The chapel was completed later that fall and the congregation gathered there until 1902, when the small chapel was sold to the Missionary Society of the Methodist Church. However, the building was destroyed by fire in 1923. 238 Christ Episcopal Church It wasnt until 1931, that Episcopalians in Whitefish Bay organized another church. In that year, Christ Episcopal Church started as a mission and a small, non-extant chapel with capacity for 200 people was built by Val Schramka at the corner of Beaumont Avenue and Consaul Place, the current location of the Silver Spring Masonic Lodge No. 337. The original chapel was designed to function as the sanctuary and parish hall until a larger church could be constructed. In 1935, a rectory was built to the east of the church, but was moved to 4725 N. Oakland Avenue in 1978 to expand parking for Sendiks Fruit Market. Plans for a larger church complex began. Land

128

across from the chapel was purchased in 1940, and the current church building was constructed in 1941. The old chapel was retained and used as a parish hall. The local Masons began renting the old chapel for its meeting hall until they purchased it from the church by 1948; it was demolished for construction of their lodge in 1964. Refer to Chapter 9 Social and Political Movements for further information on the Masons. The initial expansion plans for the Christ Episcopal Church complex were carried out with the construction of a parish house completed in 1948; a classroom, sacristy, and office addition in 1952; and the enlargement of the sanctuary, new parish hall, and a Columbarium, a mausoleum for the ashes of those cremated, in 1956. 239 Christ Episcopal Church, located at 5655 N. Lake Drive, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Gothic Revival style architecture. The Christ Episcopal Church Rectory, located at 4725 N. Oakland Avenue, was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Lutheran Divinity Evangelical Lutheran Church What is now Divinity-Divine Charity Lutheran Church was formed in 1924 as a Pentecostal Evangelical Lutheran mission which soon incorporated as an official church congregation led by Rev. A. Baebenroth. Services were first held in the old Village Hall. In 1925, a wooden chapel was purchased for $500 from Luther Memorial Church in Shorewood and moved to three lots purchased by the church for $2,000 at the corner of Henry Clay Street and Elkhart Avenue. A parsonage was constructed next to the chapel in 1927. Building maintenance costs caused the congregation to dissolve in 1940 and join with Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church in Milwaukee.240 That year, the chapel was sold and moved to Waukesha, Wisconsin.241 However, services continued in Whitefish Bay at Henry Clay School. In 1941, property was purchased and the current church was constructed. Eventually, the congregation was renamed Divinity Lutheran Church and in 1965 merged with Divine Charity Lutheran Church in Milwaukee. 242 Divinity-Divine Charity Lutheran Church, located at 900 E. Henry Clay Street, and its original rectory at 5159 N. Elkhart Avenue were not included in the survey as their additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of their original architecture. Bay Shore Evangelical Lutheran Church Bay Shore Lutheran Church was organized as a mission in the fall of 1929, led by Rev. A. V. Baughman. Services took place in a non-extant simple, white, wood framed chapel, designed by Roy Papenthien and located originally at the southwest corner of Hampton Road and Marlborough Drive. After six years, the chapel was moved to the current site, remodeled, and enlarged. By late 1949, the extant structure was constructed by the Arthur C. Wolff Company at 1200 E. Hampton Road, and the chapel was moved just to the north. After being used for several years by Congregation Shalom, the chapel was demolished in 1967 to make room for educational facilities and additional parking.243

129

Bay Shore Lutheran Church, located at 1200 E. Hampton Road, was included in the survey and is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Colonial Revival style architecture. Our Savior Lutheran Church In 1930, what is now Our Savior Lutheran Church was organized as a mission of the Wisconsin District of the Missouri Synod with only 5 members led by Rev. Erich M. Keller. A non-extant church and school building was constructed at 116 W. Silver Spring Drive. Designed and constructed by J. W. C. Bischoff for $15,000, this building originally housed a single school room on the first floor with a chapel above on the second. During the 1930s, the school became the North Suburban Lutheran School, then including children from other Lutheran congregations. The church was given its current name in 1933. Plans for a new church building were underway by 1946, when the church proposed building on the south side of Silver Spring Drive between Lydell and Bay Ridge Avenues. However, in 1948, the current church was designed by Hugo C. Haueser and built by Karl F. Hauser at 6021 N. Santa Monica Boulevard instead. That same year, the school was consolidated with St. Johns Lutheran School in Glendale. Our Savior Lutheran Church, located at 6021 N. Santa Monica Boulevard was not included in the survey as additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture. Methodist United Methodist Church of Whitefish Bay Methodists were the first Christian group to hold a church service in Whitefish Bay. This gathering was held during June of 1892 at Jefferson Hall in Jefferson Park. However it wasnt until 1902, that the Missionary Society of the Methodist Church purchased the small chapel built by the St. Clement Episcopal Mission. It was renamed Atkins Memorial Church and was staffed by student pastors from Park Place, now Kenwood United Methodist Church in Milwaukee. However, the building was destroyed by fire in 1923. 244 The congregation, feeling that it was too small in number to rebuild a new church alone, reestablished itself as an interdenominational community church. By 1924, Methodist minister Rev. Albert F. Ruth organized a congregation of 50 people that included members of at least 13 different denominations, and a new chapel was completed the following year. However, the congregation continued to be served by Methodist ministers and renamed itself Community Methodist Church in 1942. Today, the congregation remains the villages oldest under the name United Methodist Church of Whitefish Bay. The 1925 church is part of the complex still used today at 819 E. Silver Spring Drive with additions in 1944, 1951, and 1961. 245 United Methodist Church, located at 819 E. Silver Spring Drive, was not included in the survey as additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture.

Judaism Congregation Shalom Congregation Shalom was organized in 1951. The congregation met in the former Bay Shore Lutheran Chapel on Wildwood Avenue and was originally led by Rabbi Harry B. Pastor. Youth classes were held at both Cumberland School and Whitefish Bay High School. Having purchased a land to build on by 1953, the congregation soon moved to its own new facilities in neighboring Fox Point.246 Milwaukee Jewish Federation Following Milwaukees Jewish communitys general shift to its suburbs, the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center purchased the 28 acre University Day School Campus at 6255 and 6401 N. Santa Monica Boulevard in 1987. Refer to Chapter 8 Education for further information on the University Day School. The Jewish Communtiy Centers (JCC) forerunner began in 1894 as the Jewish Mission and was originally located at the Temple Emanu-El Bne Jeshurun at 10th and Cedar Streets in Milwaukee. By 1900, the Mission coalesced with the Jewish Women and the Sisterhood of Personal Service under the new name Milwaukee Jewish Settlement and rented several other locations in Milwaukees inner city. In 1911, the Settlement purchased the Abraham Lincoln House on 9th and Vine Streets in Milwaukee, where the group met until its move to the University High School on Milwaukee Street. In 1946, the group officially changed its name to the Jewish Community Center. 1955 marked the first move for the JCC away from Milwaukees inner city towards suburbs of Milwaukee with its purchase of a site on Lake Michigan at 1400 N. Prospect Avenue, where it was located until its move to Whitefish Bay in 1987. Since its earliest years the JCC has sought to provide social, educational, recreational, and cultural programs and activities including: sewing, cooking, English classes, music, and multiple social clubs. In 1998, an additional 73 acre site was purchased in Mequon for future expansion which resulted in the 2007 Hy & Richard Smith JCC Family Park. To this day, the facilities on Santa Monica Boulevard are still in active use, as multiple additions and renovations have enlarge what is now referred to as the JCCs Karl Campus.247 The Milwaukee Country Day Junior School located at 6255 N. Santa Monica Boulevard and the Milwaukee Country Day Senior School located at 6401 N. Santa Monica Boulevard were both included in the survey. Both are not eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places as their multiple additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of their original Tudor Revival style architecture.

Commerce
Introduction Since the village began to grow with residential development, several commercial districts took shape, primarily along Silver Spring Drive, Henry Clay Street, and Oakland Avenue. A wide variety of retail businesses, banks, professional offices, medical offices, and other businesses were located in along these corridors providing a wide range of goods and services to the villages residents. Many of these were businessmen and retailers from Milwaukee, locating new branches or relocating to be closer to their customers in the North Shore. Goods and Services Bakeries The Powell Building, at the southwest corner of Silver Spring Drive and Diversey Boulevard, was constructed in 1926 by H. M. Powell for Walter Drew.

No historic resources in Whitefish Bay are known to be related to Frank Putnam or his publication. The Whitefish Bay Pioneer was a four-page, tabloid-sized paper circulated in Whitefish Bay around the time of its incorporation. The first issue was published on January 16, 1892, and was issued every Saturday by George A. Rogers.278 However, the Whitefish Bay Pioneer only printed three editions.279 The first editorial urged its readers to consider several timely topics: the partition of the Town of Milwaukee School District to provide closer and better school facilities; the necessity of incorporation as a village to better serve the community and provide public improvements such as a public sewer system, better streets, a lighting system; and a public water supply to secure a reduction of exorbitant fire insurance rates; and to encourage the promotion of Whitefish Bay as a residential suburb in light of recent improved access to the area from the City of Milwaukee.280 No historic resources in the village are known to be related to the Whitefish Bay Pioneer.

139

The Whitefish Bay Post was an early publication circulated around the village starting in 1897. A man named Gethers was one of the owners of this six-column, four-page newspaper.

Lake Drive was not included in the survey due to alterations which have too greatly diminished the houses architectural integrity. The Alonzo Fowle House, located at 624 E. Day Avenue, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for James & Anna McGee House the significance of its Queen Anne style architecture. (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) A weekly newspaper named the Shorewood Radio began circulating in the North Shore communities in October of 1923, published by Ernest G. Henkel. First published in magazine format, it was enlarged to tabloid size in 1926. Henkel formed a corporation in 1927 to finance a larger printing plant which he then located in Shorewood. At this time John Collier Hart, formerly of Hearst Papers, was hired to manage advertising, and Peter J. Enders, with 30 years experience, was hired for the printing and mechanical department. Henkel continued as the general supervision, as well as editorial and news staff. His wife, Ione Henkel, served as assistant editor and business manager. Circulation grew to include readers in Milwaukee County outside of Shorewood, Whitefish Bay, and Fox Point. Henkel sold the Shorewood Radio in 1929 to George Ruez and Floyd Ross. The paper was continued under their management as The Suburban Herald. Harvey Kitz later purchased the paper, moved the printing plant in Shorewood, and divided the paper into The Shorewood Herald and The Whitefish Bay Herald. 284 No historic resources in Whitefish Bay are known to be related to the Shorewood Radio or its subsequent publications.

Utilities Telephone The Wisconsin Telephone Company began serving Whitefish Bay at the beginning of the twentieth century. In 1910, telephone lines and poles were installed Lexington Boulevard and Lake View Avenue. The following year, service was installed on Danbury Road and Oakland Avenue as well as Chateau Place, Henry Clay Street, Marlborough Drive, and Santa Monica Boulevard. In the years that followed, lines were extended along many other village streets: along the alley between Birch and Lake Forest Avenues in 1913, on Woodruff Avenue in 1914, on Lake Drive in 1915, and along Hampton Road in 1916. Also in 1916, the Wisconsin Telephone Company began installing underground conduits along Oakland Avenue before being granted village permission the following year. By 1919, the village board discontinued approving telephone pole construction on all village streets, then requiring all future lines and poles to be constructed along alleys and rear lot lines or underground. With its construction in 1922, the old village hall, now non-extant, became Whitefish Bays first public building to receive telephone service. Until this time, telephone service was installed at the houses of the Village Marshall and several firemen for the duration of their terms. In 1926, the Wisconsin Telephone Company installed five police telephone stations throughout the village for emergency use. Until the 1930s, the only telephone exchange servicing any portion of the village was Milwaukees Edgewood exchange. During that decade, more telephone exchanges were added as Whitefish Bays population increased, including the Woodruff and Flagstone exchanges. By the fall of 1939, telephone service was provided to the entire village.285 There are no remaining historic resources related to telephone service in Whitefish Bay. Electricity The Milwaukee Electric Rail and Light Company, a forerunner to the current Wisconsin Energy Corporation, began providing electricity to customers in Whitefish Bay around the turn of the twentieth century. As its name suggests, the Milwaukee Electric Rail and Light Company operated an electric streetcar system in the Milwaukee area in addition to providing electricity. In the fall of 1897, an extension of the Oakland Avenue streetcar line to Whitefish Bay was authorized. Refer to Chapter 6 Transportation for more information on the Milwaukee Electric Rail and Light Company streetcar system. For its electrical service, pole locations were coordinated with those of the Wisconsin Telephone Company. In 1912, the Milwaukee Electric Rail and Light Company, also known at that time as the Milwaukee Light, Heat & Traction Company, was contracted to operate the electricity supply system to the village. By 1919, the village board discontinued electrical pole construction on village streets, requiring all future lines and poles to be constructed along alleys and rear lot lines or underground.286 There are no remaining historic resources related to electricity service in Whitefish Bay. Water Starting in 1914, the Village of Whitefish Bay contracted to purchase water from the City of Milwaukee, and water mains were installed. To this point, all water used by the village was supplied by private wells. At the end of 1927, a conference was held between the villages of

141

Whitefish Bay and Shorewood and the City of Milwaukee concerning water. It was suggested that Whitefish Bay be served northward via Richards Street from the Milwaukee River to eliminate receiving twice metered water through Shorewood. This action required Whitefish Bay to annex a strip of land leading to the Milwaukee River, through Estabrook Park. After these actions took place, the City of Milwaukee tried leveraging its water supply to entice the annexation of Whitefish Bay and Shorewood into the city. This demand caused both villages to terminate their water contracts with the city and seek their own water system. In 1949, Whitefish Bay constructed a water tower that serviced the village alone. It is located at the north end of Lydell Avenue in what is todayWater Tower Park. 287 In 1959, Whitefish Bay along with neighboring Fox Point and Glendale acted upon permission received in 1933 from the Public Service Commission to plan for their own water system. By the summer of 1963, service from the North Shore Water System began from its shared $3,800,000 water supply and treatment plant, located at 400 W. Bender Road in Glendale. Originally planned to be located in Fox Point, the raw water intake pipe, 33 feet below the waters surface, extends 4,000 feet into Lake Michigan from Whitefish Bays Klode Park in which a pumping station is located. The system has a 16 million gallon capacity. 288 In 1998, a new water tower was constructed by Stroo Construction of Menomonee Falls replacing the 1949 tower.289 The Whitefish Bay Water Tower was not included in the survey, as it is too young to be considered an historic resource.

Planning & Landscape Architecture
Introduction Guided by a zoning code, strict building regulations, and a planning commission enacted before the majority of the village was developed, Whitefish Bay has been built as a cohesive collection of neighborhoods. These regulations encouraged the use of higher quality construction methods and building materials. The continuation of these regulations has resulted in a large number of well maintained historic resources. The villages parks and recreation spaces have been well planned by a village park board since 1923 and are located to serve all portions of the village, preserving public access to Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee River. Patterns of Community Development The Village of Whitefish Bay has had a zoning code in effect since 1922, the majority of the village being zoned for single-family residential development.290 In 1938, the village board passed an ordinance regulating building heights, requiring single-family houses to conform in height to existing houses within 70 feet from it.291 The following year, in 1939, a Plan Commission was established to advise village officials on planning in the areas of streets, sidewalks, street lighting, landscaping, traffic control, storm sewers, parking, and recreational facilities. 292 That same year, the village adopted a new zoning code, since amended, which is enforced by the village building inspector. Since 1969, the village has employed professional planning staff to advise village officials on land use and other urban planning issues.293 Following the construction of Whitefish Bays first apartment building at 1700 E. Chateau Place in 1923, village residents were largely opposed to additional multi-family residential development in the village. This was evidenced by the attitudes of both residents and the village governance at a village board meeting in the summer of 1930 at which Village President Frank Klode strongly stated his desire for the village to remain strictly single-family residential in character. 294 In 1934, a committee was formed to advertise the village as a residential area to promote strictly single-family residential development during and after the Great Depression.295 In the years that followed, the majority of apartments constructed occurred over commercial spaces in mixed-use buildings along Henry Clay Street and Silver Spring Drive. The establishment of a Plan Commission and major revision of the zoning code in 1939 were responses to a $1,000,000 apartment project proposed for the 4600 Block of Lake Drive that was not granted a rezoning and therefore never constructed. The debate over multi-family housing in the village came to a climax around the year 1950 over a $2,500,000 proposal by the Frances J. Schroedel Construction Company to construct 320 145

apartments. After the Village of Whitefish Bay annexed land southwest of Santa Monica Boulevard and Fairmount Avenue from the former Town of Milwaukee, this area was rezoned from permitting light industrial to areas of multi-family residential and commercial. The Schroedel Construction Company purchased this land during the 1940s, and at the end of that decade, sought permits to construct a large apartment development there. However by 1950, due to pressure from local residents and a desire to maintain the village as strictly single-family residences, the village board rezoned this tract to prohibit multi-family residential. Litigation ensued, ending with the Schroedel Company winning an appeal to the Wisconsin State Court and being granted the permits to construct the Bay Village Apartments. Since this time, additional apartment and condominium buildings have been constructed primarily near Henry Clay Street, Oakland Avenue, and Silver Spring Drive business districts. Sparked by the proposals for several multi-family residential buildings, a planned development ordinance was enacted in 1969 to preserve the residential character of the village.296 The Shorecliff Apartments, located at 1700 E. Chateau Place, were included in the survey and are individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The Bay Village Apartments, located at 4801-4831 N. Anita Avenue, 4833-4863 N. Anita Avenue, 4864-4894 N. Anita Avenue, 4865-4895 N. Anita Avenue, 100-128 E. Chateau Place, 115-145 E. Chateau Place, 132-162 E. Chateau Place, 216246 E. Chateau Place, 100-130 W. Chateau Place, 101-131 W. Chateau Place, 4833-4863 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, 4865-4895 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, 4901-4931 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, 4951-4961 N. Santa Monica Boulevard, 4932-4962 N. Shoreland Avenue, 4864-4894 N. Shoreland Avenue, 4865-4895 N. Shoreland Avenue, 4900-4930 N. Shoreland Avenue, and 4901-4931 N. Shoreland Avenue were included in the survey. While they are not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, all nineteen Bay Village Apartment buildings area eligible for listing as contributing Bay Village Apartments, looking southeast resources to the proposed Bay Village Residential (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) Historic District. In 1945, the Village of Whitefish Bay established an architectural review board, following the predident of Wauwatosas then 15-member architectural review board. The purpose of the fivemember committee, originally appointed by Village President Dr. Frank Drew, was primarily to see that all new houses coincide architecturally with neighboring buildings. Dr. Drew was quoted in a July 26, 1945 Whitefish Bay Herald article stating that no houses will be merely four walls and a roof. Residents of the village supported the review board as many were concerned with the benefit restriction for veterans to a maximum cost $8,000 for a new residence at $8,000 under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944. The following year, the village board passed an ordinance requiring all single-family houses to be a minimum of 17,500 cubic feet on 40-foot-wide village lots. Also in an effort to maintain architectural continuity in the villages residential neighborhoods, the village participated for a brief period of time during the mid-twentieth century in purchasing nonconforming buildings, razing them, and providing the land for redevelopment. This program was short lived due to its expense and the infrequency of non-conforming buildings coming up for sale.297

During the late 1960s, the commercial district along Silver Spring Drive developed at a larger scale than expected, resulting in heavy vehicular traffic along that street and surrounding residential streets. Off-street parking, lacking at the time, was developed in the area to minimize impact on and create a buffer to the surrounding residential neighborhoods.298 In recent years, additional streetscaping and traffic calming measures have been implemented along Silver Spring Drive. Street names were changed in the village during several phases. The first occurred around 1922. The second and largest group of changes took place during the late 1920s and early 1930s. The main goal of these changes was to eliminate the City of Milwaukee street names that continued north into the village. Many of these were replaced with names of places in California. 299 Also at this time, in earl 1931, house numbers changed to coordinate suburban addresses with those in the city of Milwaukee.300 The following table lists all street name changes during these periods; known dates of these changes are shown in parentheses.

Urban Parks and Planning Armory Park Armory Park, maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay, is located on the site of the old Whitefish Bay Armory adjacent to Whitefish Bay High School. For more information on the old Whitefish Bay Armory, refer to Chapter 4 Government. After the old armory was demolished early after the turn of the twenty first century, its grounds were designated as a new park. In 2009, construction began in the new park on a memorial to honor local veterans.301 The Whitefish Bay Veterans Memorial was not included in the survey as it is too young to be considered an historic resource. Big Bay Park In 1924, I. J. Rosenberg purchased 1,600 feel of land fronting Lake Michigan on Lake Drive between present Henry Clay Street and Fairmount Avenue. The following year he formed the Highland Beach Company to develop an apartment hotel on this land. After hiring G. H. Gottschalk & Company of Chicago to construct a $2,000,000 hotel designed by Milwaukee architect Herman Bruns, the village changed the sites zoning to prohibit the construction of a hotel. Also that year, the village began condemnation proceedings to acquire the land for a new village park. Litigation ensued and ended with the disposal of the land at sheriffs auction. The land was purchased by a developer who platted the land west of Palisades Road for residential lots. In 1937, the 8.7 acres of land east of Palisades Road were sold to Milwaukee County to become a county park.302 After World War II, a wooden memorial was erected in the park honoring Whitefish Bay veterans. However, it suffered greatly from deteriorated and was eventually removed. Today, a carved wooden eagle from the memorial is mounted in the board

148

room of the Whitefish Bay Village Hall.303 Along the shoreline in the park, a wall and pier have been constructed to prevent erosion. To this day, the park continues to be maintained by the Milwaukee County Park System.304 Big Bay Park, located on the 5000 Block of Palisades Road, was included in the survey; but it is not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Big Bay Park is eligible for listing as a contributing resource to the proposed Big Bay Park Historic District, which is comprised of the original Rosenberg parcel and adjacent Buckley Park. Buckley Park Located on the Lake Michigan bluff, 1 acre of land was acquired by the village for $35,000 to become Fairmount Park in 1931, after the village board identified a need for an additional park and beach facilities on the southern end of the village. As such, the parks original main feature was its swimming beach below the bluff which was accessed by a series of wooden steps.305 The park was renamed Buckley Park in 1933 in honor of Thomas F. Buckley, who served as village engineer and commissioner of public works from 1921 to 1933 and had an active role in the development of the park.306 From 1935 to 1950, concessions were sold from a small stand operated by high school students to support the high school band. Swimming was discontinued at the Buckley Beach sometime during the 1950s.307 In 1956, concrete revetment walls were constructed, replacing the original walls along the beach to prevent further erosion as well as protect the sewer outlet at Lake Michigan in the park.308 Today, Buckley Park is adjacent to Milwaukee Countys Big Bay Park. Buckley Park, located on the 4900 Block of Lake Drive, was included in the survey; but it is not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Buckley Park is eligible for listing as a contributing resource to the proposed Big Bay Park Historic District. Cahill Square Park Citing a need for addition recreational areas within the growing community, land for Cahill Square Park was purchased by the village by in the mid-1950s. This was one of the last large plots of land that remained undeveloped in the village at the time. 309 The park was named in the honor of Ralph H. Cahill, who served as village commissioner of public works from 1935 to 1942.310 Six tennis courts and a seasonal ice skating rink were erected in 1956 for a cost of $35,800, the first improvements to the site. In 1957, a softball diamond was built and $100,000 was earmarked for a swimming pool, however this amenity was never realized.311 In 1966, the Cahill Square Park Shelter was constructed as designed by architect Thomas M. Slater; it was remodeled in 2007 by Titan Construction of New Berlin, Wisconsin.312 Today, the park continues to be maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay. Its shelter is the only park facility within the village that can be reserved for private gatherings.313 The Cahill Square Park Shelter, located at 1001 E. Fairmount Avenue, was not included in the survey as it is too young to be considered an historic resource. Estabrook Park Estabrook Park was acquired by Milwaukee County in 1916. Portions of the park were left in their natural state, while other portions began being developed with park facilities soon after the

149

countys acquisition. What was formerly Humboldt Drive, now named Estabrook Parkway, meanders through the park connecting Hampton Road and Capitol Drive. During the early twentieth century, the park included a swimming beach complete with bathhouse along the river. A lagoon in the park, which straddles Whitefish Bays border, is the remnants of a stone quarry used by a cement mill formerly located on the land before it became the county park. For more information on the Milwaukee Cement Company, refer to Chapter 5 Industry. In 1938, the historic Benjamin Church House built in 1844 was saved from demolition in Milwaukee, moved to the park in Shorewood, and underwent restoration.314 The park is located within the boundaries of three local municipalities: the Village of Whitefish Bay, the Village of Shorewood, and the City of Milwaukee. At the end of 1927, a conference was held between these municipalities concerning water. It was suggested that Whitefish Bay continue purchasing its water from Milwaukee by way of Santa Monica Boulevard requiring Whitefish Bay to annex a portion of the park to provide access to the Milwaukee River for the construction of waste water outlets.315 For more information on public water service to Whitefish Bay, refer to Chapter 11 Commerce. Today, the 122-acre Estabrook Park is maintained by the Milwaukee County Park System and includes approximately 2 miles of river frontage on the Milwaukee Rivers east bank. Vehicular access to the park is not provided from within Whitefish Bay village limits. In the Whitefish Bay portion of the park, features include public parking, pedestrian access to the countys Oak Leaf Bike Trail, and sections of a disc golf course recently installed. Soccer fields, baseball diamonds, sand volleyball courts, an inline skate hockey rink, a dog exercise area, public access to the Milwaukee River, play fields, walking paths, several reservable and non-reservable picnic areas, and multiple stone restroom and service buildings are located elsewhere in the park.316 No historic resources within Estabrook Park were included in this survey as the only resources within the boundaries of Whitefish Bay are too young to be considered historic. Klode Park A 10.84-acre piece of land along the Lake Michigan bluff was acquired by the village in 1928 for $103,000. It was graded the following year to prevent erosion, with a drain system installed, and developed into Klode Park as designed by Frank J. Holtketter and Robert Baebenroth. The park, named after former Village President Frank C. Klode, is bisected near its center by Shore Drive. At the time of its opening, the parks swimming beach was staffed by a full-time lifeguard. In 1930, a warming house for a seasonal ice skating rink was constructed in the park; two tennis courts were also installed that year. The park building didnt receive electricity until 19 years later. Two off-street parking spaces were provided. Original plans for the park also included outdoor handball courts, a bandstand, horseshoe pits, and putting greens; however, none of these were ever developed. From 1935 to 1950, concessions were sold from a small stand operated by high school students to support the high school band. In 1944, the village constructed an additional portable warming house at Klode Park.317 The following year, it was moved to several sites along Silver Spring Drive and used as a temporary Post Office until 1952.318 In 1960, a new warming house and restroom building was constructed by the construction firm of Huehn & Campfield. In 1963, the North Shore Water System began constructing a pumping station in Klode Park in combination with a raw water intake pipe that extends 4,000 feet into Lake

150

Michigan from the Klode Beach at 33 feet below the waters surface. For more information on the North Shore Water System, refer to Chapter 11 Commerce.319 . Drains and terracing were constructed on the bluff to stabilization erosion.320 Through the 1960s, Klode Beach was staffed by lifeguards.321 Today, Klode Park continues to be maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay and also features a playground, picnic areas, and a warming house and restroom building.322 The Klode Park Shelter, located at 5932 N. Lake Drive, and the North Shore Water System Pumping Station, located along the Lake Michigan bluff in Klode Park, were not included in the survey. Lydell Community Center & Park In 1950, 7.2 acres of land were purchased by the Whitefish Bay School District in the adjacent City of Glendale. This land was once considered for the development of a new neighborhood park, which the Villages southwest side was considered to be lacking at the time. Initial proposals for a school at this site were rejected by voters in 1951. Three years later the land was annexed into the village, and Lydell School was built in 1955. The school served as an elementary school until 1989. At this time, it came to house the Whitefish Bay Community Center and its playgrounds became a public park.323 For more information on the Lydell School and Whitefish Bay Community Center, refer to Chapter 8 Education. The Lydell Community Center and its accompanying park space continue to be maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay.324 Lydell School, located at 5205 N. Lydell Avenue, was included in the survey and is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places for the significance of its Contemporary style architecture. School House Park School House Park is located on a triangular block bounded by Marlborough Drive, Idlewild Avenue, and Fleetwood Place. It is the site of Whitefish Bays first school. For more information on the old Fleetwood School, refer to Chapter 8 Education. The park features a spacious lawn, formal garden, and fountain. Today, the park is utilized every year for a Halloween Festival. 325 No resources located in School House Park were included in the survey. Silver Spring Park Silver Spring Park, located on the Lake Michigan bluff, was originally part of Silver Spring Drives right of way. This narrow strip of land between the lake and present Lake Drive was abandoned to become a public park in 1912. Wooden stairs constructed that year descended from a naturally landscaped half acre park on top of the bluff to the sand beach below, the first location in the village of such stairs down the bluff to a beach. No lifeguards were stationed at this park.326 Today, Silver Spring Park continues to be maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay. 327 No resources located in Silver Spring Park were included in the survey. Water Tower Park By the mid-1960s, 10 acres had been obtained by the village in the northwest corner of the village to develop as a park near the Whitefish Bay water tower constructed in 1949. For more information on the water tower in Whitefish Bay, refer to Chapter 11 Commerce. In 1998, the

151

existing restroom building received an addition constructed by Stroo Construction of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. Stroo also constructed a replacement water tower in the park that year. Today, Water Tower Park continues to be maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay and features soccer fields, baseball diamonds, and a concession and restroom building.328 The Water Tower Park Shelter and the Whitefish Bay Water Tower, both located at 6400 N. Lydell Avenue, were not included in the survey as they are both too young to be considered historic resources. Park on the 300-400 Block of Silver Spring Drive A small park, maintained by the Village of Whitefish Bay, is located on the 300-400 Block of E. Silver Spring Drive. It is in the location of the former Brand Meat Market, formerly 342 E. Silver Spring Drive. The market closed in 1953 after 26 years of operation. The building was soon purchased by Clarence and Sylvia Schallert, who demolished it in 1956 after constructing a new building to house their liquor store immediately to the west of the markets original location. For more information on the Whitefish Bay Liquor Shoppe, refer to Chapter 11 Commerce. The lot of the demolished market building remained vacant for many years before being developed as a public park. Today, the small park provides pedestrian access from Silver Spring Drive to public parking lots on the north half of the block behind the Fox Bay Theater and other neighboring buildings. An antique clock was placed in the park in 1988 during a streetscape improvement and repair project along Silver Spring Drive.329 No resources located in the park on the 300-400 Block of Silver Spring Drive were included in the survey.

Recreation & Entertainment
Introduction Whitefish Bay was first and best known for its recreational opportunities during the late 1800s and through the turn of the twentieth century. Several resorts were located along Milwaukees north shore of Lake Michigan, including at one time up to three located in Whitefish Bay. These resorts and picnic grounds helped spur development in the village. Since then, other recreational and entertainment facilities have made Whitefish Bay a well-rounded community. Resorts Jefferson Park Jefferson Park was one of Whitefish Bays earliest picnic grounds, located on the north side of Henry Clay Street west of present-day Lake Drive. The grounds were approximately 170 feet by 275 feet in size.330 The main pavilion, located at Henry Clay Street and Kimbark Place, served as a music and dance hall until competitor Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort purchased Jefferson Park in 1891. After the parks closing, its pavilion served as a public gathering place. Prior to the construction of both Fleetwood and Henry Jefferson Park Pavilion Clay Schools, classes took place in the pavilion during (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) warm months.331 Also in the 1890s, separate groups of Episcopalians and Methodists held their church services in the pavilion prior to constructing their first church buildings.332 In 1907, the Jefferson Park pavilion was purchased by the National Guard, moved across Henry Clay Street and, together with the former Welcome Park pavilion, was remodeled into an armory.333 There are no resources related to the Jefferson Park remaining; however, the residences later constructed on this land have been included in the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District. For more information on the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District, refer to Chapter 16 Survey Results. Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort In 1877, Fred G. Isenring purchased eighteen acres of land, bounded by Lake Michigan to the east, Lake Drive to the west, and Henry Clay Street to the south, for $1,600. He sold to the Pabst Brewing Company for $20,000 eleven years later. The company, owned by Captain Frederick 155

Pabst, wanted to invest in a private park as an outlet for their product as well as advertise the Pabst name. The Pabst board of directors voted to build a restaurant and pavilion in Whitefish Bay in November of 1888. Promenades crisscrossed the bluff leading down the waters edge, small white tables lined the bluff, and a spacious pavilion overlooked grand lake views. The pavilion was comprised of four sections: two 70-foot wings off of a central, 48-foot diameter, circular bar and a south wing containing a parlor with a broad, white staircase leading to the second floor dining room. An octagonal bandstand stood north of the pavilion. More than 300 guests attended a grand opening event on June 25, 1889. Future Mayor of Milwaukee and Governor of Wisconsin, George W. Peck, was the events grand toastmaster and remarked, The north shore area of Milwaukee is indeed the original Garden of Eden. The resort opened to the public five days later.334

The resort became a well-known dining establishment, especially for its whitefish caught fresh and locally from Lake Michigan. Visitors came to the resort from Milwaukee in horse-drawn carriages, the first automobiles along the Lake Avenue Turnpike, the Milwaukee & Whitefish Bay Railroads Dummy Line, as well as on steamships that ferried customers from downtown Milwaukee to piers just outside the resorts entrance. Travelers from as far away as Chicago, St. Louis, and Cleveland road on the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroads special excursion service to Whitefish Bay to vacation at the Pabst Resort. At the resorts peak, up to ten thousand people visited each Sunday during the summer. Theodore Roosevelt once visited the famous resort.335 Under a lease with the Pabst Brewing Company, Fred G. Isenring managed the resort from its opening in 1889 until the time of his wifes death in 1894. During his tenure managing the resort, Isenring continued acting as a real estate agent in Whitefish Bay and served as the first village president.336 Periodically, Isenring planned elaborate spectacles in which a parachutist would drop from a hot air balloon into the lake. In 1889, Isenring purchased a private residence, called Fernwood Cottage; two years later, he sold it to the Pabst Brewing Company. This house was renamed the Edgewood Family Resort and used to house employees such as cooks, maids, bartenders, and waiters. It was demolished in 1915. While managing the resort, Isenring and his family lived in a house near the bandstand. At the end of Isenrings lease, this house was moved out of the park to the southwest corner of Lexington Boulevard and Lake Drive, where he later occupied it. It is no longer extant. 337

Konopka, a Russian immigrant who previously had lost money in South Dakota flax farming, assumed a decade long management position at age 65. Konopka was innovative and deeply involved in daily operations, even supervising the kitchen and wine cellar personally. Konopka brought several changes to the resort. He installed a 10-car Ferris wheel in 1895 and, for a short period of time around the year 1900, showed outdoor movies on a screen at the edge of the bluff projected from a hand cranked projector on the bar steps. A clever businessman, Konopka sold advertising space on the Ferris wheel cars canvas awnings. During his tenure, an attempt was made to change the name of the resort to The Bellevue; however, the public continued to refer to it as the Whitefish Bay Resort often omitting the Pabst name. A copy of the Whitefish Bay Pioneer from early 1895 carried an ad for The Bellevue, the Beautiful Summer Resort at Whitefish Bay. 338 Peter and Joseph Sturm, brothers from Milwaukee, managed the resort for two seasons starting in 1904 after Henry Konopkas retirement. The Sturm brothers had no past hotel management experience, only having previously operated a saloon. In 1906, they moved the resorts circular bar to the west wing thereby creating a larger space for entertainment in the main hall, which included Tyrolean zither players and Schuhplatter dancers. Under their management, a baseball diamond was installed and small concessionaires were allowed on the premises.339 In 1907, Richard Becker took over management after previously managing the Forest Keller at Pabst Brewery. 340 At one point during his management, the Ferris wheel was replaced with a carousel. Of interesting note, dancing was never permitted at the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort. Due to the change in outing habits brought on by the growing ownership of personal automobiles, the Pabst board of directors voted on December 30, 1913 to close the resort. 341 After the resorts closing, there was discussion of the village or county purchasing the land for a park. However, the resort property was subdivided, platted, and sold as large, lakefront residential lots in 1914.342 There are no resources related to the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort remaining; however, the residences later constructed on this land have been included in the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District. For more information on the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District, refer to Chapter 16 Survey Results. Welcome Park Welcome Park was a resort and picnic ground owned by Louis Saxe in the late 1800s located west of the intersection of Henry Clay Street and Lake Drive. The grounds were approximately 190 feet by 275 feet in size. Welcome Park was named such, as it was the location of the Welcome Park Pavilion (Photo courtesy of Tom Fehring) Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroads Whitefish Bay depot starting in 1888. For more information on the railroad, refer to Chapter 6 Transportation.343 Starting in 1889, Saxe leased land in the park to August F. Nussbaumer and Adam Roth, who operated a saloon and restaurant there for five years, hosting music and dancing. Welcome Park was a competitor of the famous Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort, until the Pabst Brewing Company purchased Welcome Park from Jacob Stoll, Elizabeth Sutton,

157

and William J. Sutton in 1891.344 In 1907, the parks main pavilion was purchased by the National Guard, moved across Henry Clay Street and, together with the former Jefferson Park pavilion, was remodeled into an armory.345 There are no resources related to the Welcome Park remaining; however, the residences later constructed on this land have been included in the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District. For more information on the proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District, refer to Chapter 16 Survey Results. Performing Arts and Motion Pictures Diane Theater In 1948, Ben Marcus of the S & M Theater Company, now Marcus Theatres, proposed a $200,000 building to be located at the southwest corner of Silver Spring Drive and Kent Avenue. It was to house a single screen, 1,000-seat movie theater, six storefronts, and twenty two offices, in addition to offices for the theater company to relocate to itself. The proposed building designed by architect Perry Crosier of Minneapolis, Minnesota, of a Contemporary style with a glass and granite exterior. Named the Diane Theater, it was slated to be the first movie theater in Whitefish Bay; however, a steel shortage stopped construction of the building that year after its foundations had been installed. After several years, Marcus revised the plans to no longer include the movie theater and construction continued. The new $85,000, brick building was completed in 1952 by the William Keierleber Construction Company. Fritzels occupied the first floor retail space selling womens apparel and Marcus occupied a portion of the upper stories with their offices. A 50-car parking lot was constructed immediately west of the building, complete with brick walls along the sidewalk and a parking attendant. In 1978, a two-story addition was constructed on the west side of the building.346 The Marcus Theater Building, located at 127 & 133 E. Silver Spring Drive, and its addition, located at 111 & 121 E. Silver Spring Drive, were both included in the survey; both are not individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Fox Bay Theater The Fox Bay Building, designed by the architectural firm of Ebling, Plunkett & Keymar for Ken Reed of The Trident Corporation, began construction in 1948. The Fox Bay Theater opened upon the buildings completion in 1951. A two-story structure of brick and stone, it originally consisted of the storefronts at 316, 318, 322, 324, 330, 334 & 338 E. Silver Spring Drive. A complimentary, two-story addition, designed by the architectural firm Grassold-Johnson & Associates and comprising of 302, 304, 308, 312 & 314 E. Silver Spring Drive, was constructed in 1955.347 Daniel Katz purchased the Fox Bay Building and the theater in 1986. Katz continued to lease the theater to Reed until late in 1989 when he hired the Landmark Theater Corporation to continue its management. Landmark Theaters pulled out in 1991 due to declining ticket sales, a national trend for single-screen theaters such as the Fox Bay Theater. At that time, Katz converted it to a budget theater format in a last attempt to attract an increase in customers. However, this attempt was unsuccessful and the theater closed in September of 1992. Later that year, the national chain bookseller Barnes & Noble submitted a proposal to convert the theater space into a 17,000 square foot superstore. The proposal met heavy opposition from the community. A 3,000 signature petition was submitted to the village, leading to Barnes & Noble

158

to drop its plans.348 The theater underwent a complete renovation in 2000 and reopened that year as the independently operated Fox Bay Cinema Grill, the first dinner and a movie style theater in the Milwaukee area.349 The Fox Bay Building, located at 302, 304, 308, 312, 314, 316, 318, 322, 324, 330, 334 & 338 E. Silver Spring, was included in the survey and is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places due to the significance of its Art Moderne style architecture. North Shore Childrens Theatre During the 1960s, a group named the North Shore Childrens Theatre was active in Whitefish Bay.350 Little else is known about this group at the present time. No historic resources were found to be associated with this group. The Bay Players The Bay Players began with their first performance in 1951 under the sponsorship of the Whitefish Bay Department of Recreation and Adult Education. As a community theater group, auditions are open to all members of the public who have completed high school. The group handles all aspects of stage production including set and costume design, publicity, make-up, and lighting and sound engineering. Early performances were held in the Henry Clay School gymnasium. Currently, all productions of the Bay Players are performed at the Whitefish Bay High School auditorium. 351 For more information on Henry Clay School and Whitefish Bay High School, refer to Chapter 8 Education.

Through an interest in family geneology, Mimi became active with the Whitefish Bay Historical Society in the early 1980s. She began researching the history of Whitefish Bay soon after, inventorying the villages oldest homes, studying the minutes of every village board meeting from 1892 to 1950, inverviewing long-time residents, and acquiring historic letters and documents. Eventually broadening the breadth of her subject area to include the entirety of the former Towns of Milwaukee and Granville, Bird became the undisputed expert on local history of the North Shore area. She produced a book on local history for the 100th Anniversary of Whitefish Bay in 1992. After her death in 2002, Mimis compiled research, including the 27volumeWhitefish Bay Historical Research Project, was gifted to local history libraries. It is available at the Whitefish Bay Public Library, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Golda Meir Library, the Milwaukee County Historical Society, and the Milwaukee Central Librarys local history room.357 Balistreri Brothers In 1947, Frank, Ignatius, Thomas, and Joseph Balistreri purchased a village-owned lot which housed a temporary post office structure at the intersection of Silver Spring Drive and Consaul Place.358 There they constructed a retail building, designed by the architecture firm Grassold and Johnson, and opened Sendiks Fruit Market in 1948. In 1975, the store soon expanded to become a full-service grocer.359 Today more than a dozen Sendiks grocery stores are located throughout the Milwaukee area under multiple ownerships. The Sendiks Food Market Building, located at 500 E. Silver Spring Drive, was not included in the survey as its additions and alterations have too greatly diminished the integrity of its original architecture. George Bentley George Bentley established Bentleys Whitefish Bay Inn, a combination tavern, restaurant, and grocery store, around the year 1900 on Henry Clay Street across from the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort. A barn was originally located behind the store to house visitors horses and wagons.

164

1923 at the non-extant Village Hall on Lexington Boulevard. As a permanent place of worship was desired by the small congregation with limited means, Rev. Dietz purchased two homesteads at the corner of Silver Spring Drive and Santa Monica Boulevard within one year. Rev. Dietz had the idea to convert a barn on the property into a chapel. He also assisted with its renovation work. Before construction, there was strong objection to a barn being converted into a church; but after, the chapel was regarded by many as one of the most charming and intimate places of worship in southeastern Wisconsin. The chapel was dedicated on May 4, 1924, the Catholic feast day of St. Monica, and was used for weekly services for the next four to five years until a new worship space was provided in a new school building. The converted barn was still utilized as a chapel until its demolition in the late 1960s. 380 Rev. Dietz had grand building aspirations for St. Monica parish from the outset. His original plans included a large church, convent, grade school, high school, gymnasium, hospital, and center for the study and creation of religious art. While a hospital association was formed around 1930, neither the hospital nor the art center was ever built. The church, school, convents, and high school from Rev.

Survey Results
Introduction The survey conducted on the historical aspects of the Village of Whitefish Bay shows a genuine abundance of valuable historic properties within the survey boundary due to the villages history of architectural regulation. A number of properties surveyed were identified as potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places or were included in the proposed districts. The examples found in the village suggest a community rich with history and some respect for the history of the resources that are available to them. The principal investigators surveyed 2,861 structures of architectural or historical interest. Of these, 107 are individually eligible for the National Register of Historic Places for architectural and/or historical significance. (See Chapter 2, Survey Methodology, for in-depth list of National Register criteria) There are also 12 districts and 2 complexes identified. Of the districts proposed, 11 are primarily single-family residential and 1 is multi-family residential. Both of the complexes are religious and educational. Through the course of the survey, several types of information were gathered and organized. From this information, the following documents were created: survey maps of the entire Village of Whitefish Bay survey area, a database of buildings surveyed, photos of every surveyed building, 12 district and 2 complex survey maps, and this report. This architectural and historical intensive report and the associated work elements mentioned above are kept at the Historic Preservation Division of the Wisconsin Historical Society in Madison and a copy of the report is kept at the Whitefish Bay Village Hall and the Whitefish Bay Public Library. This chapter contains the following results of the survey: lists of individual properties already listed in and potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, list of all properties and additional information on the proposed districts, and a listing of all properties surveyed in Whitefish Bay. The district surveys include a list of all properties included within the boundaries and if the properties are contributing or not to the district. The lists that are given of the potentially eligible properties are not permanent. Properties might change, fall into disrepair, become gutted by fire, come under renovation, demolition, or rehabilitation. Properties may fall from the list as others become potential for the list. Further research on buildings may uncover additional properties that went uncovered during the course of this survey and should be added to the potentially eligible lists.

Proposed Bay Ridge & Kent Avenues Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Bay Ridge & Kent Avenues Residential Historic District is a well-defined neighborhood of 330 buildings situated in the northwest portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Bay Ridge and Kent Avenues from Devon Street on the north to Lake View Avenue on the south and along Shoreland Avenue from Belle Avenue on the north to Lake View Avenue on the south. The area of both small and modestly sized homes was developed beginning in the early-1920s and was filled in over the next four decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival and Tudor Revival style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the entirety of Santa Monica Commons Subdivision, Thelens Subdivision No.1, and Thierfelders Subdivision; the majority of the North Shore Park Subdivision, Silver Spring Forest Subdivision, Silver Spring Forest Addition Subdivision, and F. G. Isenrings Land Company Subdivision; and portions of the Bay Shore Downs Subdivision and Assessors Plat #241. These subdivisions were platted primarily during the early twentieth century, with North Shore Park being platted in 1924; Santa Monica Commons in 1925; Bay Shore Downs, Silver Spring Forest, and Thelens Subdivision in 1926; and Thierfelders Subdivision in 1930.482 The original sale of lots in many of these subdivisions included provisions for solely single family residential use, minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses constructed. In Thelens Subdivision, restrictions also included the prohibition of sale to colored persons for twenty five years. 483 Statement of Significance The Bay Ridge & Kent Avenues Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single- and multi-family dwellings constructed between approximately 1923 and 1958, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. The district is comprised of 328 contributing resources and 2 non-contributing resources. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 328 contributing and 2 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the north curb line of Lake View Avenue that corresponds to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5700 N. Shoreland Avenue, continue west along south property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5701 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue south to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5661 N. Bay

189

Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of said lot, then turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 6257 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 6256 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue north along the east curb line of Bay Ridge Avenue to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 6300 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of said lot, then turn 90 degrees and continue south to the southeast corner of said lot, then turn 90 degrees and continue west to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 6270 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to a point on the south curb line of Devon Street corresponding to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 6200 N. Bay Ridge Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue east along the south curb line of Devon Street to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 6174 N. Kent Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 181 E. Belle Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 201 E Belle Avenue, then turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated 5700 N. Shoreland Avenue. The boundary for the Bay Ridge & Kent Avenues Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 61 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Bay Ridge & Kent Avenues Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries. The result is a cohesive district with as few non-contributing properties as possible. Building Inventory The following inventory lists every building in the proposed district and includes the address of the property; the historic name; the date or circa date of construction; and the resources contributing (C), non-contributing (NC), or previously listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) class.

Proposed Bay Village Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Bay Village Residential Historic District is a well-defined cluster of 42 buildings situated in the southeast portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Santa Monica Boulevard and Shoreland Avenue from Fairmount Avenue on the north to Hampton Road on the south; Chateau Place and Fairmount Avenue from Lydell Avenue to Santa Monica Boulevard, and the entirety of Anita Avenue. The area of both small and large multifamily residential buildings was developed in a short period of time around 1950. Colonial Revival style and vernacular side gabled buildings are found in the district. The district is comprised of the entirety of Richtons Subdivision and the majority of Assessors Plat #245, platted in 1928 and 1939 respectively.484 The majority of the district is a multi-family residential development developed Frances J. Schroedel and constructed by the Frances J. Schroedel Construction Company by the name of Bay Village Apartments. The remainder of the district is comprised of the Bay Lawn Apartments developed in 1948. 485 During the 1940s, Schroedel began purchasing property in the district including the Richton Subdivision and neighboring land which had been recently annexed into the village of Whitefish Bay and rezoned from light industrial to multi-family residential in 1941. Schroedel was initially rejected a building permit to construct the extant apartment buildings in 1950; he responded with legal action against the village. Pending legal action, the village held an advisory referendum on the rezoning of Schroedels land to single-family residential. Its results favored the rezoning by 311 to 234 votes; the property was rezoned. The initial litigation ruled in favor of Schroedel; the village appealed to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. However, the initial ruling was upheld, the zoning was returned to multi-family residential, and Schroedel was granted building permits to construct the Bay Village Apartments.486 Statement of Significance The Bay Village Residential Historic District was identified for its heavy concentration of multifamily dwellings constructed between 1948 and 1952, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival and Vernacular styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. The district is comprised of 42 contributing resources and no non-contributing resources. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 42 contributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the north curb line of Hampton Road that corresponds to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 4801 N.

Proposed Big Bay Park Historic District Narrative Description The Big Bay Park Historic District is a well-defined cluster of 36 buildings and 2 sites situated in the northwest portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Lake Drive and Palisades Road from Henry Clay Street to the north and Fairmount Avenue to the south. The area of both modestly sized and large homes began in 1938 but was substantially developed over the following two decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Monterrey, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the entirety of the Big Bay Park Subdivision, platted in 1937, along with two parks. An agreement between the village and the districts developer, Nakima Realty Company, required that all houses constructed in the subdivision cost a minimum of $12,500.487 Statement of Significance The Big Bay Park Historic District was identified for its concentration of single-family dwellings constructed between 1938 and 1957, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. The district is comprised of 37 contributing resources and no non-contributing resources. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 37 contributing and 0 noncontributing properties and 2 parks within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the north curb line of Fairmount Avenue that corresponds to the northwest corner of the lot associated with Buckley Park, continue west along the south property line of the lot associated with 5001 N. Palisades Road to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 5000 N.

Proposed Fairmount & Highland View Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Fairmount & Highland View Residential Historic District is a well-defined neighborhood of 202 buildings situated in the southeast portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Cumberland Boulevard, Larkin Street, and Lake Drive from Henry Clay Street on the north to Fairmount Avenue on the south and along Ardmore Avenue, Woodburn Street, and Cumberland Boulevard from Fairmount Avenue on the north to Hampton Road on the south. The area of both small and modestly sized homes began developing in the late 1800s, was substantially developed by approximately 1920, and filled in over the next four decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Mediterranean Revival, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the entirety of the Continuation of Highland View Subdivision; the majority of Stone & Thomas Subdivision No. 1 - Fairmount Heights; and portions of Fairmount Park Subdivision and Highland View Subdivision. The first of these subdivisions were platted in the 1890s, with the remaining platted in the following decades. In 1892, the Highland Land Company purchased the 50-acre I. H. Lowry farm and platted the land as Highland View. Fairmount Heights was also platted that year, and Fairmount Park in 1926.490 Statement of Significance The Fairmount & Highland View Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single- and multi-family dwellings constructed between approximately 1919 and 1961, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. The district is comprised of 208 contributing resources and 4 non-contributing resources. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 202 contributing and 4 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the north curb line of Hampton Road at the southeast corner of the lot associated with 4800 N. Cumberland Boulevard continue west along the south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 4800 N. Ardmore Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 4824 N. Ardmore Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of the lot associated with 4831 N. Ardmore Avenue to the southwest corner of said

215

lot, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 4975 N. Ardmore Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 1401 E. Fairmount Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of the lot associated with 5003 N. Cumberland Boulevard to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 5157 N. Lake Drive, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of said lot, turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to a point on the west curbline of Lake Drive corresponding to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 5129 N. Lake Drive, turn approximately 45 degrees and continue southeast along the northeast property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5009 N. Lake Drive, turn approximately 45 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 1540 E. Fairmount Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of the lot associated with 1540 E. Fairmount Avenue to the southeast corner of the lot associate with 4820 N. Cumberland Boulevard, turn 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 4800 N. Cumberland Boulevard, turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to the southeast corner of said lot. The boundary for the Fairmount & Highland View Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 41 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Fairmount & Highland View Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries. The result is a cohesive district with as few non-contributing properties as possible. Building Inventory The following inventory lists every building in the proposed district and includes the address of the property; the historic name; the date or circa date of construction; and the resources contributing (C), non-contributing (NC), or previously listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) class.

Proposed Idlewild Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Idlewild Residential Historic District is a well-defined cluster of 62 buildings situated in the center of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Fleetwood Place, Briarwood Place, Lexington Boulevard, and Sylvan Avenue from Idlewild Avenue on the west to Marlborough Drive on the east. While development of the area began around 1890, it was not substantially developed with both small and modestly sized homes until after 1920. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Bungalow, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the majority of the Stone and Thomas Subdivisions Idlewild No. 1 and No. 3.491 Stone & Thomas, a Milwaukee real estate firm, acquired the 9 acres to plat Idlewild No. 1 in 1887 in speculation to sell residential lots to workers of the rail yard rumored to be constructed in Whitefish Bay by the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad. Idlewild No. 3 was platted in 1890.492 The original sale of lots Idlewild No. 3 included provisions for solely single-family residential use, a minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses constructed.493 Statement of Significance The Idlewild Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single-family dwellings constructed between approximately 1892 and 1956, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. The district is comprised of 58 contributing resources and 4 non-contributing resources. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 58 contributing and 4 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the south curbline of Fleetwood Place at the northeast corner of the lot associated with 715 E. Fleetwood Place, continue southeast along the east property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5225 N. Marlborough Drive, turn 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 5220 N. Idlewild Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 707 E. Fleetwood Place, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 715 E. Fleetwood Place.

The boundary for the Idlewild Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 14 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Idlewild Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries. The result is a cohesive district with as few non-contributing properties as possible. Building Inventory The following inventory lists every building in the proposed district and includes the address of the property; the historic name; the date or circa date of construction; and the resources contributing (C), non-contributing (NC), or previously listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) class.

Proposed Lake Crest Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Lake Crest Residential Historic District is a well-defined neighborhood of 397 buildings situated in the center of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Shoreland Avenue, Santa Monica Boulevard, Berkley Boulevard, Diversey Boulevard, Hollywood Avenue, and Idlewild Avenue from Silver Spring Drive to the north to Henry Clay Street to the South. The area of modestly sized homes began in 1926 and was developed and filled in over the next four decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival and Tudor Revival style residences are prominent within the district. The topography of the area is relatively flat. The neighborhood has wide streets with parallel parking on both sides and concrete curbs and gutters; additionally, there is a grass median down the center of Santa Monica Boulevard separating the opposing driving lanes. The sidewalks are set apart from the streets curbs by a grass terrace with large mature trees lining the streets. At the intersections of Santa Monica Boulevard, Berkley Boulevard, Diversey Boulevard, Hollywood Avenue, and Idlewild Avenue on both Birch Avenue and Lexington Boulevard, the sidewalks are curved. The residences in the district generally respect a uniform setback from the street, with exception those at these rounded corners which form a curve. The small lots are typical of urban practice, conforming to the standard conventions of the plats block and lot configurations, with exception of those located at said curved corners. They are generally narrow, deep, and rectilinear in shape. Detached garages are located along alleys on all but one of the blocks within the district. These alleys mimic the curved corners behind the residences. On the block at which an alley is not provided, the detached garages are located to the rear of the lot and are accessed via long, narrow driveways. The district is comprised of the majority of Lake Crest Subdivision and Lake Crest Addition Subdivision; and portions of the Silver Spring Highlands Subdivision. These subdivisions were platted primarily during the late-1920s.494 The Lake Crest Development Company purchased the former Krych farm from John Mann and Richard Burke and platted Lake Crest in 1925. The original sale of lots in some of these subdivisions included provisions for solely single-family and dual-family residential use, minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses constructed.495 Statement of Significance The Lake Crest Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single- and multi-family dwellings constructed between 1926 and 1962, having local significance under both National Register Criterion C for Architecture and National Register Criterion A for Community Planning and Development. The district is comprised of 392 contributing resources and 5 noncontributing resources. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative

Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 392 contributing and 5 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the west curb line of Idlewild Avenue that corresponds to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5421 N. Idlewild Avenue, continue west along south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 5220 N. Shoreland Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 5578 N. Shoreland Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 5579 N. Hollywood Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said property to a point on the west curbline of Hollywood Avenue corresponding to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 5550 N. Hollywood Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of said lot, turn approximately 45 degrees and continue southeast along the east property line of said lot to the northeast corner of the lot associated with 626 E. Birch Avenue, turn approximately 45 degrees and continue south along the east property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 5421 N. Idlewild Avenue. The boundary for the Lake Crest Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 82 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Lake Crest Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries nor do they refelcet the unique plat of this neighborhood. The result is a cohesive district with only a few non-contributing properties.

Proposed Lake Heights Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Lake Heights Residential Historic District is a well-defined cluster of 11 buildings situated in the northeast portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Monrovia Avenue from Lake Drive to the west and Lake Michigan to the east and Lake Drive Court. The area of large homes began in 1930 and was developed and filled in over the next three decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Tudor Revival and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the majority of the Lake Heights Subdivision, platted in 1927. The original sale of lots in this subdivision included provisions for solely single-family residential use, minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses construction as well as requiring houses be constructed of brick or stone masonry.496 Statement of Significance The Lake Heights Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of singlefamily dwellings constructed between 1930 and 1958, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. The district is comprised of 11 contributing resources with no non-contributing resources. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 11 contributing and 0 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the east curb line of Lake Drive that corresponds to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 6050 N. Lake Drive, continue north along west property line of said lot to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 6100 N. Lake Drive, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to the northeast corner of said lot, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the east property line of the lot associated with 6115 N. Lake Drive Court to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 6129 N. Lake Drive Court, turn 90 degrees and continue east along the north property line of said lot to west shore of Lake Michigan at the northeast corner of the lot associated with 6130 N. Lake Drive Court, turn 90 degrees and continue south along the lakeshore to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 6052 N. Lake Drive Court, turn approximately 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associated with 6050 N. Lake Drive.

The boundary for the Lake Heights Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 9 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Lake Heights Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries.

Proposed Lawndale Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Lawndale Residential Historic District is a well-defined neighborhood of 176 buildings situated in the center of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Day, Carlisle, Lake View, and Beaumont Avenues from Lake Drive on the west to Shore Drive on the east and Shore Drive from Day Avenue on the north to Silver Spring Drive on the south. The area of both small and modestly sized homes began in the early-1890s and was developed and filled in over the next six decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Queen Anne, Dutch Colonial, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the majority of the Lawndale Subdivision, Continuation of Lawndale Subdivision, and North Lawndale Subdivision. The district was primarily platted in the late nineteenth century by Acme Realty Company, with Lawndale being platted in 1888 and its continuation in 1891; North Lawndale was platted soon thereafter.499 To spur interest in the development, Acme Realty Company officers constructed houses of their own in the district in 1892, including the companys president, L. L. Disbro, and secretary, C. Robert Gether. A portion of Lake Drive, along the bluff north of Silver Spring Drive, was vacated in 1895 with that portion of Lawndale being re-subdivided.500 Statement of Significance The Lawndale Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single- and multi-family dwellings constructed between approximately 1892 and 1951, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. The district is comprised of 1 building previously listed on the National Register of Historic Places, 169 contributing resources, and 6 non-contributing resources. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 1 previously listed, 169 contributing, and 6 non-contributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the south curb line of Belle Avenue that corresponds to the northwest corner of the lot associated with 5866 N. Lake Drive, continue east along north property line of said lot to the west shore of Lake Michigan at the northeast corner of the lot associated with 5866 N.

Proposed Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District is a well-defined neighborhood of 186 buildings situated in the center of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Lake Drive from Lake Forest Avenue to the north and Henry Clay Street to the south; Birch Avenue, Lexington Boulevard, and Sylvan Avenue from Marlborough Drive to the west and Lake Drive to the east; Danbury Road from Glen Avenue to the north and Birch Avenue to the south; and Circle Drive. The area of small, modestly sized, and large homes began in the 1890s and was substantially developed starting in approximately 1905 and filled in over the next five decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Mediterranean Revival, Dutch Colonial, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the majority of the Stone and Thomas Subdivision Idlewild No. 2, Pabst Whitefish Bay Subdivision, Continuation of Pabst Whitefish Bay Subdivision, and Second Continuation of Pabst Whitefish Bay Subdivision; and portions of the Lake Forest Park Subdivision and Stone and Thomas Subdivision - Idlewild No. 3. The earliest of these subdivisions were platted at the end of the nineteenth century in response to the success and popularity of the Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort. The remainder of the district is comprised of the resort grounds and surrounding land after the closure of the resort in 1914.501 Stone & Thomas, a Milwaukee real estate firm, platted Idlewild No. 2 as a continuation of its earlier Idlewild subdivision. While the firms first subdivision was developed as speculative housing for workers of a rail yard rumored to be constructed in Whitefish Bay by the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western Railroad, Idlewild No 2.was designed to attract the development of high quality residences along two grand Boulevards terminating at the new Pabst Whitefish Bay Resort. Idlewild No. 3 was platted two years later, in 1890.502 Richard Burke and John E. Mann of the Tweedy Land Company platted Lake Forest Park north of the resort in 1892. The Pabst Brewing Company platted the Pabst Whitefish Bay Subdivision in 1916 on its former resort grounds. In 1918, the districts Sylvan Avenue was reduced from boulevard- to average-width; Lexington Boulevard remains to this day as originally constructed. Also in 1918, the Continuation of Pabst Whitefish Bay was platted followed by its second continuation the following year. 503 The original sale of lots in most of these subdivisions included provisions for solely single-family residential use, minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses constructed. The Pabst Whitefish Bay subdivisions also expressly prohibit the keeping of cows, pigs, chickens, ducks, and poultry on their lots.504 Statement of Significance The Pabst Whitefish Bay Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single- and multi-family dwellings constructed between approximately 1905 and 1956, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of

249

the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. The district is comprised of 6 buildings previously listed on the National Register of Historic Places, 169 contributing resources, and 11 non-contributing resources. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance.

Proposed Wilshire Residential Historic District Narrative Description The Wilshire Residential Historic District is a well-defined cluster of 35 buildings situated in the southeast portion of the Village of Whitefish Bay and has boundaries roughly delineated along Lake Drive and Wilshire Road from Cumberland Boulevard to the north and the village limits to the south and Glendale Avenue from Frederick Avenue to the west and Lake Drive to the east. The area of both modestly sized and large homes began in 1937 and was developed and filled in over the next three decades. Representative of the prevailing architectural styles of their time, Colonial Revival, Monterrey, Ranch, and Contemporary style residences are prominent within the district. The district is comprised of the majority of the Wilshire Subdivision and portions of Reinhold, Matthieson & Reinharts Lake Woods Subdivision No. 2, both platted in 1927.505 The original sale of lots in both of these subdivisions included provisions for solely single-family residential use, minimum front set back, and minimum cost for houses constructed. Additionally, buildings constructed in Wilshire were required to be two-stories tall.506 Statement of Significance The Wilshire Residential Historic District was identified for its concentration of single-family dwellings constructed between 1937 and 1962, having local significance under National Register Criterion C for Architecture. Utilizing the Wisconsin Historical Societys Cultural Resource Management in Wisconsin, additional research centered on evaluating the resources within the district utilizing the Period Revival styles subsections of the Architecture study unit of the aforementioned text. The district is comprised of 35 contributing resources and no noncontributing resources. Individually, the contributing resources include fine representative examples of several of the most popular styles applied to residential architecture in Wisconsin during the period of significance. Boundary Description The district consists of the legal parcels associated with the 35 contributing and 0 noncontributing properties within the district and may be defined by this general description: Beginning on the west curb line of Lake Drive that corresponds to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 4515 N. Lake Drive, continue west along south property line of said lot to the southwest corner of the lot associate with 2121 E. Glendale Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue north along the west property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 2111 E. Glendale Avenue, turn 90 degrees and continue west to the southwest corner of said lot, turn 90 degrees and continue north to the northwest corner of said lot, continue north along the west property line of the lot associated with 4617 N. Wilshire Road to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 4635 N. Wilshire Road, turn 90 degrees and continue west along the south property line of said lot to the west corner of the lot associated with 4645 N. Wilshire Road, turn approximately 45 degrees and continue northeast along the northwest property line of said lot to

257

the north corner of the lot associated with 4661 N. Lake Drive, turn approximately 90 degrees and continue southeast along the northeast property line of said lot to the southeast corner of the lot associated with 4515 N. Lake Drive. The boundary for the Wilshire Residential Historic District is clearly delineated on the accompanying district map. The boundary encloses the area of 12 acres. Boundary Justification The boundaries of the Wilshire Residential Historic District enclose all the areas historically associated with the districts resources. While adjacent areas are residential in nature, they do not maintain the historic integrity of the residences contained within the district boundaries. The result is a cohesive district with as few non-contributing properties as possible. Building Inventory The following inventory lists every building in the proposed district and includes the address of the property; the historic name; the date or circa date of construction; and the resources contributing (C), non-contributing (NC), or previously listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) class.

Recommendations
Introduction The survey should serve as the first step in the creation of an overall historic preservation ethic in Whitefish Bay. It gives a brief history of the village, identifies historic resources, and can serve as a basis for decision-making activities regarding those resources. This report can be used to create interest and awareness and promote historic resources and preservation issues in Whitefish Bay. This chapter outlines the many benefits of and economic incentives for historic preservation and provides preliminary recommendations for future preservation actions in the village. Community Strategies for Historic Preservation A village-wide preservation program can be one of the most effective forms of economic development that a municipality can support. Preservation stimulates both public and private investment in the community and supports major components of the local economy: tourism, construction, and real estate. Historic buildings attract customers and are often sought after, desirable pieces of real estate. There are many benefits of historic preservation: Enjoyment of the communitys heritage Improved property values Increased property tax receipts Investment in older & historic properties Increased tourism Greater flexibility in meeting Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in historic buildings More flexibility in meeting state building codes Greater community pride and an increased sense of belonging Increased attractiveness to new businesses Decreased crime and vandalism in historic areas Increased conservation of materials and natural resources Improved overall quality of life In order to achieve these benefits, many incentives for historic preservation have been developed. There are several different types of tax incentives. Property owners who undertake a certified historic restoration or rehabilitation of their property are eligible for income tax credits. Certain historic buildings are also exempt from property taxes, and tax deductions can be utilized

325

for historic faade easements. Additionally, there are several building code incentives. Buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places or buildings that are eligible for listing qualify for the International Existing Building Codes Historic Buildings Chapter which is slightly more lenient than the standard building code. There is also a greater flexibility in meeting the building requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Further information regarding these incentives has been included in the Chapter 18 Appendix. Recommendation for the Registration & Protection of Resources Historic Preservation Ordinance Before any of the above mentioned benefits of preservation can continue in Whitefish Bay, it is imperative that a formal village-wide historic preservation program be established. In 1994, an act of the Wisconsin Statutes was passed that required cities and villages, such as Whitefish Bay, which have buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places to enact an ordinance to regulate any place, structure or object with a special character, historic, archaeological or aesthetic interest, or other significant value, for the purpose of preserving the place, structure or object and its significant characteristics. Ordinances serve to protect extant historic resources and officially establish a Historic Preservation Commission. Such an ordinance has already been enacted by the Villages Board of Trustees. This was a great step forward in protecting Whitefish Bays historic structures. However, the ordinance is fairly weak and does not meet the standards set forth by the Wisconsin Historical Society. Now would be an excellent time to fine tune this ordinance to remove some of the voluntary, or opt-in, aspects to allow for Commission designation of individual buildings and districts. Historic Preservation Commission A group of individuals has been appointed for the commission, including teachers, local businessmen, and Village trustees. In the future consideration should be given during appointments to ensure commission members possess knowledge, experience, and interest in the areas of history, historic preservation, historic architecture, real estate, and law. This commission should be commended on their recent efforts to update the WHPD and provide plaques identifying locally landmarked buildings. They hold regular public meetings in order to tackle the tasks that lie ahead. It is their duty to establish planning policies, educate the community, and carry out the program. These tasks are imperative given the high profile threats and losses that the community has recently faced, such as the demolition of the Whitefish Bay Armory. If or when the budget permits, some consideration may be given to hiring a staff preservation consultant to keep the commission organized, set policies, and carry out the day-today operations of the program. Certified Local Government This survey was funded by a grant through the Wisconsin Historical Society. However, that same grant money that could be used for preparation of an official city preservation plan, public education, or National Register Nominations is not available to communities unless they have been declared a Certified Local Government. After the ordinance is revised, the Commission

326

should make an effort to be declared a Certified Local Government so that it may receive future grant monies. Several documents that discuss this matter are published by the Wisconsin Historical Society have been included in the Chapter 18 Appendix. Local Landmarking of Historic Resources The Whitefish Bay Historic Preservation Commission has locally landmarked many buildings in the past. It is hoped that this report will enliven their efforts to continue to identify and landmark historic resources in Whitefish Bay. National Register Nominations This report has outlined many individual historic properties and several historic districts that are potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. An effort should be made to follow through with National Register nominations for these properties and districts. After they become a Certified Local Government, the Historic Preservation Commission could apply for grants through the Wisconsin Historical Society. The information contained in this survey report will act as a springboard for further research for these nominations. Threats to Resources Ironically, the biggest threat to Whitefish Bays historic resources is the same this that made it a desirable location when it was founded: it location along Lake Michigan and proximity to downtown Milwaukee. This location has historically attracted residents of affluence and wealth, resulting in the villages status as one of Milwaukees elite historic suburbs. Today, the proximity to places of work, good schools, and established neighborhoods has contributed to the ongoing desirability of Whitefish Bay. Changes in modern conveniences and increasing public expectations have brought a great deal of pressure on older homes, especially those with lake frontage. This has resulted in the demolition of a number of buildings which have been replaced with new, larger ones and extensive remodeling and additions to hundreds of buildings. Because of Whitefish Bays location and status, these trends are expected to continue into the future. The largest threat to preservation in Whitefish Bay is razing of historic buildings. In recent years, a few homes, commercial buildings, and, most notably, the armory have been torn down. Other threats to Whitefish Bays architectural integrity include unsympathetic additions to buildings and the replacement of original windows and siding with more modern materials which obscure unique historic details. The Historic Preservation Commission should keep abreast of upcoming project at historic properties. With the current ordinance, there is little to prevent the types of threats mentioned above. Perhaps future losses could be minimized if the historic preservation ordinance had a bit more teeth. Any future demolitions need to be clearly and carefully examined. Demolition is forever!

327

Public Education In order to gain public support for preservation activities, it is important that the public be educated to the issues. It is also important to remind the community of the buildings that have already been lost as a means to protect historic buildings in the future. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways. Media, such as local television, radio, newspapers, and brochures, can spread the word to many. Displays in public buildings, such as in the Village Hall basement, can also bring awareness to the community. Tourism publications can educate visitors about Whitefish Bays history. Self-guided and guided walking tours and tours of historic homes are often popular and can showcase Whitefish Bays historic buildings to those within the community and interested visitors. Lectures and workshops on preservation issues can also be useful. Historically appropriate maintenance, window replacement, residing, painting, and porch replacement should be promoted at these types of events. A set of design guidelines for historic preservation can be developed and distributed to local architects, building owners, contractors, and others in the community. The City of Milwaukees series of guides: As Good as New: A Guide for Rehabilitating the Exterior of Your Old Milwaukee Home; Good for Business: A Guide to Rehabilitating the Exteriors of Older Commercial Buildings; and Living with History: A Guide to the Preservation Standards for Historically Designated Homes in Milwaukee are excellent resources for any community and any preservation project. Future Survey & Research Needs This is not a complete history of the Village of Whitefish Bay. It is hoped that this survey will be periodically updated and expanded upon. This report is subject to change. Additional research and clarifications should be incorporated and added to this report in the future. This is a living document and the beginning of an ongoing historic preservation effort that will continue for years to come in this community.

Historic Preservation Ordinances and Commissions in Wisconsin

Wisconsin communities have become increasingly aware of the need and the desirability to preserve and protect the architectural, historical, archaeological and cultural buildings and sites that contribute to their distinctive identity and that create a satisfying environment. As a result of this awareness, many cities and villages, and some towns and counties, have created historic preservation programs through the enactment of local historic preservation or landmarks ordinances, which establish historic preservation commissions for the communities. In the spring of 1994, the Legislature enacted the 1993 Wisconsin Act 471, which amended section 62.23 (em) of the Wisconsin Statutes, to require cities and villages that contain any property listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the State Register of Historic Places to enact an ordinance to regulate any place, structure or object with a special character, historic, archaeological or aesthetic interest, or other significant value, for the purpose of preserving the place, structure or object and its significant characteristics. Historic preservation commissions, established through local preservation ordinances, are responsible for designating significant historic properties, reviewing projects affecting those designated properties, and providing preservation services. In most instances, the project review responsibility is carried out through a mandatory review of all exterior alterations or changes. Municipal commissions also advise other governmental commissions or departments on the maintenance of community-owned historic properties or on projects that might affect significant architectural, historical or archaeological properties in the community. In addition, commissions often sponsor educational activities and the publication of educational and tourism materials. The benefits of local government historic preservation programs are becoming more widely recognized. Some of the benefits include improved property values of designated historic properties and properties within historic districts; increased private investments in downtown and neighborhood revitalization projects; development of community pride and commitment to community improvement; and an increased attractiveness to new businesses, new residents, and visitors. In addition, the entire community benefits from the knowledge, enjoyment and satisfaction associated with preserving and enhancing its historical heritage. Implementation of a local historic preservation program requires community awareness of the value of preserving its cultural resources and a commitment to protecting them. Such a program requires the energy and time of community volunteers, the leadership of elected officials, the support of municipal staff, as well as some modest financial resources. In order to conserve and protect the communitys historical, architectural and archaeological resources, historic preservation commissions may be established by municipal ordinance. The authority to do so for cities, villages, towns or counties is contained in subsections 62.23(7), 60.64, or 59.97(4) of the Wisconsin Statutes.

Summary of an Ordinance Creating a Historic Preservation Commission for a Municipality

Purpose To recognize, preserve and enhance areas, sites and structures that contribute to a municipalitys distinctive environment, through the creation of a Historic Preservation Commission with preservation responsibilities. The ordinance would establish a statutory commission which would provide a comprehensive preservation program, would coordinate preservation related activities undertaken by private organizations and municipal departments and would develop additional functions necessary for a serious local preservation program, including coordination with the state and federal preservation programs. The Commission The commission would consist of seven (or nine) members appointed by the mayor and confirmed by city council (or village board). A majority of the commissioners would be experienced as historians, architects, architectural historians, or historic preservationists, if possible, and have knowledge of historic preservation. The commission would be provided with staff by the planning department. Designations by the Commission The commission would have the power to designate, for preservation purposes, those areas, sites, and structures that are of historical, prehistorical, architectural or cultural value located in the municipality. Designations would be made according to the following categories: 1. Historic buildings or sites: any physical feature or improvement having significance to the city, state or nation. This category most often would be used for individual buildings, as well as archeological sites. 2. Historic district: an area containing physical features or improvements which are of significance to the city, state or nation and cause such area to constitute a distinctive section of the community. Process of Designation First, a report or nomination would be prepared that describes the significance of the building or area under consideration. If a historic district is nominated, the report describes boundaries and the standards and criteria for reviewing subsequent changes. A public hearing is held, following at least three weeks notice to all affected parties. Following the hearing the commission decides whether or not to make a designation. Additionally, the city council may or may not be required to approve the designation for districts. Regulatory Functions The commission would be empowered to review proposed changes including requests for building permits. The commission would be authorized to approve or disapprove, or at least delay, changes to the physical environment of designated buildings and districts. Changes to be reviewed by the commission could include: new construction, demolition, and alteration of exterior architectural features. No building permit would be issued for changes to designated properties unless the application for permit is accompanied by a Certificate of Appropriateness from the commission. Other Functions of the Commission The commission would assist with local preservation planning efforts, often in conjunction with the planning department. The commission would conduct or supervise an on-going survey to identify and evaluate properties of historical, prehistorical or architectural interest, prepare reports of its findings, and sponsor educational activities in the community. Historic Building Code Certification A municipality (city, village, town or county) may apply to have its historic preservation ordinance certified to allow use of the Wisconsin Historic Building Code by owners of locally designated historic buildings. This code, designed to facilitate the rehabilitation and restoration of historic structures, is administered by the Safety and Building Division of the Wisconsin Department of Commerce. Certification of local ordinances is done by the Division of Historic Preservation of the Wisconsin Historical Society. Certified Local Government Program A municipality with a historic preservation ordinance may apply for Certified Local Government (CLG) status, which provides eligibility to apply for special CLG grant funds to assist in carrying out the local preservation program. The requirements for the CLG program are described in Procedures for Certification of Local Governments in Wisconsin, which is available from the Division of Historic Preservation. CLGs are automatically certified for purposes of the Historic Building Code. The CLG program is a federal-statelocal partnership designed to recognize and assist grass-roots preservation programs. A model ordinance is available from the Division of Historic Preservation

Procedures for the Certification of Local Governments in Wisconsin

The Certified Local Government program was enacted as part of the National Historic Preservation Act Amendments of 1980 and has been established in Wisconsin to further encourage and assist historic preservation by local governments. A Certified Local Government (CLG) is any city, village, county, or town that has been certified by Wisconsins State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) and the Department of the Interior as meeting the following basic criteria: 1. Enforces appropriate local ordinance for the designation and protection of historic properties. 2. Has established a qualified historic preservation commission by local ordinance. 3. Maintains a system for the survey and inventory of local historic properties. 4. Provides for public participation in the local historic preservation program. Once certified, a local government will: Be eligible to apply for matching subgrants from the federal Historic Preservation Fund allocation to the state, to be used for eligible CLG activities Be eligible to authorize the use of the Wisconsin Historic Building Code for locally designated historic buildings Be responsible for reviewing National Register of Historic Places nominations within its municipal boundaries before they are sent to the State Historic Preservation Review Board Submit an annual report of historic preservation activities to the SHPO

How to Apply for Certified Local Government Status in Wisconsin

The chief elected official of the local government submits a letter requesting certification to the State Historic Preservation Officer, Division of Historic Preservation, Wisconsin Historical Society, 816 State Street, Madison, WI 53706. The request must consist of the following: 1. Assurance that the local government will enforce appropriate state and local legislation for the designation and protection of historic properties and coordinate its activities with the State Historic Preservation Officer If all requirements are not presently met, a statement must be

included indicating how and when they will be fulfilled. 2. A copy of the local historic preservation ordinance, including any amendments. 3. A list of properties and districts designated under the local ordinance, including proper names and addresses. 4. A list of the local historic preservation commission members, including qualifications or expertise in fields related to historic preservation. 5. If the local preservation commission does not include professional members from the disciplines of history, architectural history, architecture, or archeology, a statement demonstrating that the local government has made reasonable efforts to appoint such members. 6. If the disciplines of history, architectural history, architecture, and archeology are not all represented on the commission, a proposal on how the local preservation commission will obtain such professional expertise to review National Register of

Historic Places nominations or take other delegated actions that will impact properties normally evaluated by professionals in these disciplines. 7. A copy of the local historic preservation plan, if available, or a brief statement describing the local preservation program. 8. If appropriate, a list of any additional duties, responsibilities or activities that the local government agrees to undertake if certified. The SHPO will respond to an adequately documented request for certification in less than 60 days. If the local government fulfills the requirements, the SHPO will approve the certification request and prepare a written Certification Agreement for signature by the chief elected official of the local government. It will list the specific responsibilities of the local government when certified. The Certification Agreement and the CLG application will then be sent to the Department of the Interior for review.

What Certified Local Government Activities are Eligible for Funding?

In general, activities that are eligible for CLG funding include: Survey projects to identify and evaluate significant historic properties Preparation of nominations to the National Register of Historic Places Review of nominations to the National Register of properties located within the CLGs jurisdiction Educational activities, such as workshops, production of slide or video programs, preparation of booklets, brochures or other publications that further the goals of historic preservation Development of municipal preservation plans Administration of municipal historic preservation programs

How Does a CLG Apply for Funding?

After becoming certified, a CLG may apply for matching subgrants during the annual application period. Application forms, annual state priorities for funding, and criteria for awarding subgrants are available from the SHPO. Local Governments may be certified and participate in review of National Register nominations and other activities whether or not they elect to apply for CLG funds.

WISCONSIN PRESERVATION INFORMATION

GUIDELINES FOR PLANNING HISTORIC PRESERVATION TAX CREDIT PROJECTS

WISCONSIN SUPPLEMENT TO THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR'S STANDARDS FOR REHABILITATION
INTRODUCTION State and federal tax programs require that all tax-creditrelated work must meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation (or, simply, the Standards). The information contained in this pamphlet is designed to provide you with guidance about how the Standards are interpreted for various types of preservation work; however, because there are a wide variety of historic properties, it is impossible to provide a complete set of guidelines to address every situation. This pamphlet is directed to the most common preservation problems. To resolve issues not discussed here, you should refer directly to the Standards or to the brochures listed on page 10. It is important that applicants understand some underlying principles about how the Standards are applied to the tax certification program: 1. Many historic buildings have been altered unsympathetically in the past. Under these circumstances, there is no requirement that you remove these alterations. The tax credit program allows you to leave the alterations in place and to "work around them." For example, if your intention is to rehabilitate the interior, you are not required to restore the exterior as part of the project. On the other hand, if you do elect to remove any alterations, the Standards require that the work be designed to restore the building's original features to the extent practical. 2. The public should not be given a false impression of what is, and is not, historic. For that reason, if new features are to be added to a historic building or property, they should not be made to look historic; however, they should be sympathetic in design and materials to the historic property. (See page 7: Construction of New Additions) 3. The long and short-term structural effect of any proposed work must be taken into consideration. Some types of work performed commonly on older buildings, such as sandblasting, lead to accelerated deterioration and should not be performed.

NOTE This publication is not intended to be a substitute for the Secretary of the Interior's "Standards for Rehabilitation" and the suggestions below carry no legal authority. In planning work, you should refer first to the Standards and their guidelines. Copies of the Standards are available on request from the Division of Historic Preservation (a copy should be included in the packet in which you received this pamphlet.) The "Standards" are also available on the web at http://www.nps.gov/history/hps/tps/tax/rhb/stand. htm

SITE WORK
GENERAL DISCUSSION: Most types of site work are allowable, as long as: - the work does not destroy significant archeological remains or landscape features; - does not encroach on any historic buildings; and - does not introduce incompatible new features to the site. NOTE
The term "archeological remains" is used in this publication to denote any prehistoric or historic archeological deposits or features that may exist. These include not only burial sites and effigy mounds, but also a wide variety of prehistoric habitation sites, deposits of historic and prehistoric artifacts, cemeteries, rock art, and cave sites. Technically speaking, any federally funded or subsidized undertaking that involves ground disturbance should be analyzed for its effect on significant archeological remains, including, when necessary, archeological excavation and analysis. Under most circumstances, the tax credit program does not require you to conduct an archeological investigation unless your site contains archeological remains. However, if during the course of a project, archeological remains are discovered, you are required to cease work immediately and to contact the Office of the State Archeologist at 608/264-6496.

Evidence of whether a building is considered to be significant is often found in the National Register or State Register nomination for the property or district. You should contact Joe DeRose, staff historian, at 608/264-6512 for a determination of significance on any building proposed for demolition. NEW CONSTRUCTION ON-SITE OR ON ADJACENT PARCELS OF LAND All new construction must be described in the application. Even when new construction is to be carried out by someone other than the applicant, it will be considered part of the project if there will be a physical connection between the new structure and the historic building or if the new construction is to take place on property that has been divided from the historic property. SITE EXCAVATION Generally, no additional documentation is required for excavation work unless that work is to be performed at a known archeological site, in which case an archeological investigation will be required to determine that no significant remains will be disturbed as a result of the project. If the work is to take place in an area suspected to contain significant archeological remains, you may be required to conduct archeological testing before excavation can begin. If, during the course of the work you discover archeological remains, you will be required to cease work immediately and to contact the Office of the State Archeologist
at 608/264-6496. NOTE If human remains are discovered, state law requires that you cease work immediately and contact the Division's Burial Sites office at 608/264-6507 or toll-free in Wisconsin at 800/342-7834.

REGRADING, LANDSCAPING, AND CONSTRUCTION OF SIDEWALKS AND PARKING AREAS Regrading should be limited to areas away from, or at the rear of, the historic building. You should avoid changes in the ground level near the historic building. New plantings and sidewalks are usually not a problem as long as the character of the site is not changed. Parking areas should, to the extent possible, be located at the rear of a site and in most cases should not abut the historic building. If the site contains significant archeological remains or landscape features, any regrading, landscaping, or construction on-site should be designed to leave these features intact.

BUILDING EXTERIOR
GENERAL DISCUSSION: The extent to which you can change a building's exterior appearance depends on the visibility of the area in which the changes are to take place. Generally, the less visible the side of a building is, the more changes that can be made. For purposes of the discussion below, a primary facade is one that is highly visible and, in most cases, has significant architectural detailing. A secondary facade is one that is generally visible from public rights-of-way, but may not contain any distinguishing architectural features. A rear facade is one that is generally not seen by the public and contains no architectural decoration. As a rule, primary facades should be left as intact as possible, while rear facades can be altered more substantially.

DEMOLITION OF EXISTING BUILDINGS INCLUDING THOSE ON ADJACENT LOTS Buildings on, or adjacent to, the site of a historic building may be demolished if they do not contribute to the significance of the historic building or its context. On the other hand, just because a building or addition is not original to a property does not always mean that it can be demolished; it may be historically significant nonetheless.

EXTERIOR BUILDING CLEANING If you plan to remove paint or dirt from the outside of your building, the methods to be used should be specified in the application. Below are some things to be aware of are discussed. In most cases, removal or dirt or paint is unnecessary in order to preserve a building. Dirt and paint are rarely harmful to building materials and, in fact, may serve as a protective layer that shields the surfaces of the buildings from the elements. Also, because every method of exterior cleaning carries with it some risk of damage to the building materials, you should consider carefully whether to clean the building at all. If you do elect to remove dirt or paint, you should proceed very cautiously. The Standards specifically prohibit sandblasting in any form (except to clean cast iron, as discussed below). Sandblasting is sometimes referred to by other names, such as abrasive blasting or "featherblasting." When the sand is mixed with water, it is usually called waterblasting. If any of these methods are used, your project will be denied certification because of the damage that these methods cause. Equally damaging is high-pressure water blasting, even when no sand or other aggregate is added to the water. High water pressures can be damaging to most building materials. Older, softer material may be damaged at lower pressures. If you intend to use water to clean your building, you must specify that the pressure will be tested (see below). If you intend to chemically clean your building, please be aware that no chemical or chemical manufacturer is "preapproved" for use in this program. Building materials vary widely in composition and chemicals that may be applied safely to one building can result in severe damage to another. In addition, some chemical companies specify that the chemicals be washed from the building at high water pressures that, in itself, can damage the building. For these reasons, it is required that a cleaning test patch, typically four foot square, be performed on an inconspicuous part of the building prior to cleaning the entire building. This test patch should be inspected for possible damage to the building materials, including mortar joints, and should be used as a standard by which the rest of the cleaning is evaluated. In cleaning metal elements, you should determine whether the metals are ferric or non-ferric. Ferric metals contain iron and are prone to rusting. Non-ferric metals, such as brass, bronze, copper, and aluminum, are non-rusting. (The simplest way to determine whether a metal is ferric is to use a magnet. Ferric metals will attract a magnet; non-ferric metals will not.) If exterior metal elements are ferric (iron-based) it should be determined whether those elements are cast iron or coated metal. Generally, cast iron is used in storefront columns and trim; otherwise, any metal trim is likely to be terne or zinc coated steel. Cast iron may be sandblasted to remove dirt or paint but coated steel should be hand-scraped to remove only the loose paint before repainting. Sandblasting coated steel will remove the protective coating and will ultimately lead to severe rusting. In general, because most non-ferric metals do not corrode, they do not require cleaning and, in fact, can be damaged through the cleaning process. We recommend strongly that non-ferric metals not be cleaned. Regardless of the methods used to clean your building's exterior, they must be specified in the application along with your intention to apply and inspect a test patch. If you plan to clean all or part of your building, you must submit with the application clear, close-up photographs of the parts of the building to be cleaned before the cleaning takes place. When the test patch is applied, you should photograph it for submission with the Request for Certification of Completed Work.

REPOINTING Repointing (also referred to as "tuckpointing") refers to the replacement of deteriorated mortar in brick and stone buildings. If done improperly, it can cause structural as well as visual damage. The method used to remove loose mortar is an important consideration. Hand chiseling of deteriorated joints is the method least likely to cause damage to the brickwork; however, it is sometimes difficult to find contractors willing to hand-chisel the joints. Cutting the mortar out with saws and removing it with power chisels can sometimes be performed without damaging the bricks, but when these methods are employed carelessly, they can cause permanent structural damage to the masonry. It is important in the case of saw-cutting that the bricks not be sawed into and in power-chiseling that the corners not be chipped away. Regardless of the method used to remove loose mortar, we recommend that a test patch be specified, as discussed below. In addition to the method used to remove the mortar, it is equally important that the composition of the new mortar match that of the building. Too often, especially in brick walls, mortar joints are repointed with Portland cement compounds that are harder than the bricks themselves. Then, when the building experiences thermal contraction and expansion, the faces of the bricks crack and fall off. New mortar should contain sufficient quantities of hydrated lime to make it softer than the bricks. A reasonably soft mortar should contain at least as much hydrated lime as

4
Portland cement, and preferably two or three times as much. (A useful rule of thumb is that mortar used in pre-1875 buildings should contain 3 times as much lime as Portland cement; buildings built between 1875 and 1900 should contain a 2 to 1 ratio of lime to Portland cement, and post1900 buildings should contain equal parts of lime and Portland cement.) Because of the potential damage that can result from any type of tuckpointing, it is strongly recommended that only those joints that are deteriorated be repointed. If done properly, the repointed joints will match those of the rest of the building. This is the most economical procedure, as well as the best historic preservation practice. It is extremely important that the appearance of the new joints match those of the rest of the building, especially when only the deteriorated joints are to be repointed. Mismatched mortar joints can result in the building taking on a "patchwork quilt" appearance. The primary concerns here are the color of the replacement mortar and the tooling. With respect to color, if the mortar mix contains Portland cement, we recommend that white Portland cement be used. This will better reproduce the color of the older high lime content mortars. Along with the use of aggregate (sand) in the mix that matches the original and appropriate coloring agents (if necessary), a good overall match can be achieved. Standard, gray Portland cement generally results in joints too dark to match the original color. In addition, if the tooling of the new mortar joints does not match the original, the new joints may appear to be wider than the rest. Ultimately, you will be responsible for the work of the contractor. If the completion photos that you submit show mortar joints that do not match the width, color, or appearance of the original joints, you may be denied final certification of your project. Therefore, we require that you specify in your contract with the mason that a test patch (a sample area of repointed joints, typically a four-foot square area,) be carried out. After the test patch is applied, it must be inspected to make sure that the appearance of the new joints matches that of the rest of the building and that the masonry units have not been damaged. The repointing contract should specify that all of the repointed joints will match the appearance of the approved test patch. Your description of the work in the application should indicate the mortar formula to be used, the method of removing loose mortar, and that a test patch will be performed. In addition, you should photograph the approved test panel before and after repointing and submit the photographs along with the Request for Certification of Completed Work.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 2: Repointing Mortar Joints in Historic Brick Buildings." To request a free copy, see page 10.

WINDOW REPLACEMENT In many tax applications, the applicants propose to replace original windows with energy-efficient, "maintenance free" units. In most cases, these units do not duplicate the historical appearances of the windows they are designed to replace. The use of inappropriate new windows will result in denial of your project for the tax incentives. Inappropriate window replacement is one of the major reasons for project denial in the tax credit program. If you plan to replace windows as part of your project, please consider the comments below. In preparing your application, you should demonstrate that the existing windows have deteriorated beyond repair. If you claim that the existing windows cannot be saved, you should back that statement up with clear detail photographs of a number of the windows and a "window inventory" to indicate the conditions of all of the windows in the building.

If windows are to be replaced, the replacement windows must duplicate in every respect the appearances of the original windows, including the appearances of the muntins (dividing bars), the proportions of the original windows, the thickness of the sash elements, and the window finishes. The material of the old windows should be duplicated as well, if at all possible. To change materials, you must be able to demonstrate that using the historic material would be technically or financially infeasible. If the wood windows are a significant element of an important historic interior, using another material may not be acceptable. To demonstrate that the new windows match the old, you must submit comparative window section drawings, showing the head, sill, jamb, and muntin sections of the old and the new windows. If you are replacing wooden windows with new aluminum units, the new windows must have a painted or baked-on finish, rather than an anodized finish. Anodized finishes, particularly bronze-colored finishes, have a distinctly metallic appearance that is inappropriate when aluminum windows are being substituted for wooden windows.

Another requirement when aluminum windows are used as substitutes for wooden windows is that the glass be set back from the faces of the frames by approximately the same distance as in wooden windows which, typically, would have a "putty line." To illustrate this concept, the glazing in wooden windows is held in place with either putty or wooden stops which sets the glass approximately 1/2" back from the face of the window frame. On the other hand, the glazing in many aluminum windows is held in place by a metal flange. The result is that the glass is set back from the frame by only about 1/8" which causes the window sashes to look "flat" and out-of-character with most buildings. In addition, the use of tinted and reflective glass, including most "Low-E" glass, (which under many lighting conditions appears as reflective glass) is not allowed. Historic windows should be glazed with clear glass. If low-E glass is used a one foot square sample should be submitted to demonstrate it is not overly tinted or reflective. For purposes of maintenance and energy efficiency you may wish to install interior or exterior storm windows instead of replacing the original windows. Exterior storm windows can be aluminum combination windows as long as the window tracks are mounted so as not to protrude from the

face of window openings and the proportions of the storm windows match those of the original windows. If you plan to install storm windows, you should include with your application large-scale head, jamb, and sill details of the storm window assembly. You should also describe the type of finish to be used. As in the case of aluminum primary windows, the finishes should be painted or baked-on, rather than anodized. If you plan to use panning (metal covering) over the outside window framing, it must conform in shape to the existing window moldings, it must be applied tightly to the moldings, and it should not have an anodized finish. Muntin duplication is a major problem in replacement windows. In nearly all cases, artificial muntins are unacceptable, including those that are applied on the exterior, those applied on the interior (sometimes called "snap-in" muntins), and those sandwiched between the layers of double glazing. Replacement windows must incorporate true muntins -- that is, muntins that actually divide the panes of glass. Furthermore, the appearances of the new muntins must duplicate substantially those of the original windows.

6
doors are not necessary to the operation of the building, they should be left in-place and, if necessary, made inoperative. If storefront windows are to be replaced, the new windows should duplicate the materials and proportions of the originals, including any muntins (divisions between panes of glass) that may have existed.

ROOF REPLACEMENT Generally, flat roofs that are not visible from the street require only a brief description of the proposed roof treatment. For pitched roofs, the application must state the type of replacement material to be used. As a general rule, if a roof was originally wood shingled, the replacement shingles may either be replacement wood shingles or standard 3-tab shingles in a shade of gray that resembles weathered wood. You should avoid using artificially rusticlooking wood, asphalt, or fiberglass shingles that purport to look like wood shakes.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 9: The Repair of Historic Wooden Windows" and "Preservation Briefs 13: The Repair and Thermal Upgrading of Historic Steel Windows." To request a free copy, see page 10.

CLOSING-UP WINDOW OPENINGS OR ADDING NEW WINDOWS Original window patterns should not be changed on primary facades. On secondary facades, changes should be in keeping with the overall window patterns of those sides of the building. On rear facades with limited visibility, significant changes can usually be made; however, they must be in character with the rest of the building. On masonry buildings, when original windows are closed-in, the infill material should match those of the wall and should be inset from the face of the wall at least two inches. Nonoriginal windows can usually be closed flush to the wall surfaces with matching materials. For new windows, the application should contain drawings similar to those specified in the window replacement section. STOREFRONT ALTERATION AND RESTORATION Rehabilitation of storefronts, either original storefronts or those that have been altered in the past, should be based on the historic appearances of the buildings. Treatments such as installation of wood or metal awnings, installation of solid panels in the transoms (which, typically, were glazed), and removal or alteration of original entrances should be avoided. In addition, projects that result in removing doorways, such that there are no apparent entrances into the storefront will likely be denied. Even if existing or original

Slate or tile roofs should be repaired, if possible, rather than replaced. If replacement is necessary, these roofs should be replaced in-kind; however, in the case of slate, we will usually accept replacement with slate-gray, standard 3-tab shingles if it can be shown that the slates have deteriorated beyond repair. Generally, it is not appropriate to use substitute materials, such as concrete shingles, to replace slates or tiles; however, there are situations where these materials may be allowed. If you propose to use substitute materials, you should discuss your plans with us in advance to avoid denial of your project.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 4: Roofing for Historic Buildings." To request a free copy, see page 10.

REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF ORIGINAL FEATURES Repair, rather than replacement, of any feature -- such as wood trim, siding, entry steps, a dormer or a porch -- is always strongly encouraged. If replacement is necessary, documentation of the deteriorated condition of the feature should be submitted. Only those portions of any feature that are deteriorated should be replaced. For example, if only the lower clapboards of a buildings siding have decayed, then only those boards and no other historical material should be replaced. Replacement boards should match the existing in size, design and material. Artificial siding in aluminum or vinyl is almost never seen as an appropriate replacement for wood. The use of

7
substitute materials, in some cases, may be acceptable if the new material would resolve difficult structural, economic or maintenance issues, and duplicate the original materials appearance.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 16: The use of Substitute Materials on Historic Building Exteriors" To request a free copy, see page 10.

REMOVAL OF LATER BUILDING ADDITIONS OR FEATURES Later additions or features may be removed if they do not contribute to the significance of the building and if the area from which they are removed is to be restored or rehabilitated sympathetically. Even if an addition is not original to a building, it may still be historically significant. Evidence of whether an addition is considered to be significant is often found in the National Register or State Register nomination for the property. Likewise, if the property is located within a district, you should check the district nomination to see if the feature or addition was added during the period of significance of the district. If so, you should not remove it. For example, removing a porch constructed in 1910 from an 1875 house, to rebuild the original porch may not meet the "Standards". If the house were significant as the residence of an important historical figure who resided in the house until 1930, then his 1910 alteration of the porch would be considered important historically and should not be changed. When planning demolition, you should contact the Division of Historic Preservation (see page 9) for a determination of significance of any feature proposed for removal. For further information about how to treat an area after removal of later elements, see the comments regarding construction of new additions. CONSTRUCTION OF NEW ADDITIONS It is impossible to develop a hard-and-fast set of rules for new construction that will apply to every situation and every historic building The following remarks are to be used as general guidance only. Each project is reviewed on a case-by-case basis. In general, the degree to which new construction can take place on a historic building, and the design of the new construction, is determined by the visibility of the area in which the construction is proposed. Additions to historic buildings should be constructed on the least visible elevation such that the historic building remains the most prominent element from the public right-of-way. In some

cases, particularly when a building is freestanding and visible from all points (in other words, when it has four primary facades), it may not be possible to construct any additions. New additions should be limited to rear facades and should, generally, be contemporary in design, as opposed to historic-looking replicas of the building to which they are attached. Contemporary work may utilize the same materials and patterns of the original construction but should not attempt to look like part of the original construction. Certain contemporary materials, such as unpainted wood, mill finished aluminum, tinted or reflective glass and some concrete block, are not compatible with most historic buildings. Generally, additions are most successful that match the historic buildings materials, attempt to minimize the link to the historic building, mimic the rhythm and proportions of the original buildings features and simplify historic design motifs.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 14: New Exterior Additions to Historic Buildings..." To request a free copy, see page 10.

BUILDING INTERIOR
GENERAL DISCUSSION: It is a common misconception that this program is only concerned with the outside appearance of buildings undergoing rehabilitation and, therefore, applicants may omit any description of the proposed interior work that they plan to carry out. Below are some remarks that you should consider in planning and describing interior work. In reviewing interior work, we try to determine whether the work will have an effect on significant interior features and spaces. We determine significance from the content of the National or State Register nomination, the Part 1 application, and from the photographs that are submitted with the application. If the National or State Register nomination or Part 1 application cites significant interior features and spaces, these should be respected and preserved whenever possible. Where interior work is proposed, it is important that clear photographs of the building's interior be submitted with the application. There should be a sufficient number of photographs to illustrate the condition of all representative interior spaces prior to demolition or construction. In addition, the photos should document the appearance of any potentially significant interior elements that will be affected by the project. If you do not plan to carry out interior work, it is helpful if you say so in the application. Then, when the application is reviewed, the reviewer will know that interior work has not been inadvertently omitted.

8
In describing the new interior features, it is important that you tell what the new interior finishes will be. You should describe, generally, the wall, floor, and ceiling treatments. REMOVAL OR ADDITION OF INTERIOR WALLS If a building contains significant interior spaces, you should work within the existing floor plan to the extent possible. The Standards do not usually allow total gutting of a building unless the interior has been completely altered in the past and possesses no significant features or spaces. Significant interior spaces include both those that are highly decorated and original (such as hotel lobbies) and those that are characteristic of the buildings in which they are contained (such as school auditoriums and corridors). In evaluating which spaces can be changed on an interior, you should determine which spaces are primary and which are secondary. Primary spaces are those that are important to the character of a building and should always be preserved. Unfortunately, because there are a wide variety of historic buildings, each with its own type of significance, there are no absolute rules for identifying primary spaces. REMOVAL OR RELOCATION OF INTERIOR TRIM OR FEATURES As in the case of interior spaces, whether interior door and window trim, baseboard or other features, such as doors, fireplace surrounds, stair rails, or decorative plaster, can be removed depends on the significance of those features. The Standards consider both highly decorated features (such as grand staircases) and characteristic features (such as original window trim) to be significant and, to the extent possible, these should remain intact. If original features have to be removed during construction, they should be reinstalled (or, if this is impossible, reproduced) in their original locations. Avoid moving original decorative elements to new locations. A project may be denied certification if the effect of the interior work is to create a new, "historic" interior -- that is, an interior that looks to be original, but is actually a collection of original building artifacts applied in non-original locations over new construction. Likewise, interior trim for new walls should be generally of the same type and proportion as the original trim, but should not duplicate it exactly, unless the original trim is relatively unornamented. CHANGES IN ROOM FINISHES In dealing with buildings other than single family houses, a general rule-of-thumb in determining which spaces are primary (and, therefore, should not be altered extensively) is whether the spaces are "public" or "non-public." In general, "public" spaces should be preserved largely intact whereas "non-public" spaces may be altered more radically. For example, the "public" spaces in a school building would include the corridors, entrance lobbies, stairwells, and auditoriums. These should be left intact. On the other hand, the "non-public" spaces, such as classrooms and offices, can be altered more extensively, provided that there are no highly significant features present. In office buildings, the "public" spaces would include the hallways, lobbies, and any decorative stairways. "Public" spaces in churches would include most of the interior features. On the other hand, there may be few or no "public" spaces in many warehouses and factories. When interior walls are to be changed, you will be required to submit "before" and "after" floor plans. Combined before and after floor plans drawn primarily to indicate the location of new partitions and where the existing partitions are shown as dotted lines (indicating demolition) are not acceptable for this purpose.
Detailed information is available in "Preservation Briefs 18: Rehabilitating Interiors in Historic Buildings." To request a free copy, see page 10.

For most interior walls, the choice of finishes is not a problem. We are likely to question the covering over of original decoration (such as stenciling), the removal of plaster or wooden elements (such as cornices or wainscoting), or the application of textured wall paints on original plaster. A modern popular treatment, the removal of plaster to expose brick or stone is not appropriate. Historically, brick would be left exposed only in utilitarian structures such as mills, factories, or warehouses. In the area of floor finishes, you should avoid removing or permanently damaging decorative flooring; otherwise, most types of treatments are allowable. Ceiling treatments are the cause of some concern in this program. We are likely to question the lowering of ceilings, particularly those in public spaces. If you propose to lower ceilings, they should not be dropped below the level of the tops of the windows unless they are revealed upward at the windows for a distance of at least three feet from the outside walls. We will not accept the installation of plywood panels, spandrel panels, or opaque glazing in the upper portions of windows to hide suspended ceilings. In spaces where the ceilings are to be lowered or repaired, and the original ceiling was plastered, you should install suspended gypsum drywall (or plaster) in lieu of suspended acoustical tile. If room finishes are to change significantly, the application materials should contain a room finish schedule or some similar indication of the room finishes.

9
REMOVING OR INSERTING FLOORS In most cases, the removal or insertion of floors in a historic building will result in denial of tax credits; however, there are situations where these treatments may be considered. Removal of floors may be considered in buildings where "gutting" would be permitted: buildings in which the affected areas possess no significant spaces or features. Even under these circumstances, floor removal should be limited to less than 1/3 of the building's area per floor. In addition, floor removal will not be allowed if it makes the building appear to be a hollow shell from any direction. New floors may be inserted only when they will not destroy the spatial qualities and decorative features of significant larger spaces. The insertion of intermediate loft levels in a warehouse, for example, is likely to be approved if it does not involve changing the outside window patterns. The insertion of an intermediate floor in a theater or the worship area of a church, on the other hand, will nearly always result in denial of a project. WALL INSULATION Typically, we review three types of wall insulation: insulation of wall cavities, insulation applied to the inside surfaces of exterior walls, and insulation applied to the outside surfaces of buildings. With respect to insulation installed in cavity walls, because of the potential moisture damage problems that can result, we encourage applicants to apply other energy-saving measures elsewhere on historic buildings and to leave the wall cavities uninsulated. If you plan to install blown-in insulation, we will require at the very least an indication that a sufficient vapor barrier exists to prevent future damage to the structure. If the wall cavity is to be opened up during construction, it is strongly suggested that fiberglass insulation and an adequate vapor barrier be installed. With respect to insulation applied to the inside surfaces of exterior walls, it will not be allowed in cases where decorative interior features (such as ornate plasterwork) will be destroyed or covered over. Such work may be allowed, however, if the original moldings and trim are reinstalled in their original locations on the insulated walls. Application of insulation over the exterior surfaces of walls is generally prohibited except, in some cases, on rear facades. INSTALLATION OF NEW MECHANICAL SYSTEMS, ELECTRICAL WIRING, AND PLUMBING In most cases, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work will have no effect on the historic qualities of a rehabilitated building; however, these items should be addressed in the application. Of these, the installation of new mechanical systems should be described in the most detail. If, for example, an existing hot water heating system is to be replaced by a new forced-air system, the changes necessary to install heating ducts may be of concern. Also, in the installation of mechanical cooling systems, the location of the condenser is an important consideration. Condensers should not be installed in visible locations on roofs or, at ground level, on primary facades. If unit air conditioners (window units) are to be installed, the Standards do not allow sleeve holes to be cut into primary and secondary facade walls and does not allow windows on these facades to be blocked-in to receive such sleeves.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION TAX INCENTIVES

FOR INCOME-PRODUCING HISTORIC BUILDINGS
INTRODUCTION Federal tax incentives for the rehabilitation provide a 20% investment tax credit to owners who substantially rehabilitate their incomeproducing certified historic structures. These tax incentives have been in effect since l976 and have been substantially amended several times; this pamphlet reflects the latest changes, the Tax Reform Act of l986. This nation-wide program is managed by the National Park Service and administered in Wisconsin by the Division of Historic Preservation (Division) of the Wisconsin Historical Society. In planning a tax credit project, you should be aware that the Tax Reform Act of l986 established "passive income" and transition rules that may affect your ability to claim tax credits, depending on the nature of your investment, your total income, and when your project was carried out. Interpretation of these rules is beyond the scope of this summary. For further information, you should contact the IRS, a tax attorney, or an accountant.

THE ROLE OF THE DIVISION OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION

The Division of Historic Preservation does not have the power to approve historic tax credit applications. The authority to approve or deny rests solely with the National Park Service. The role of the DIVISION consists of:

*(Subject to rules regarding Wisconsin 5% credit. See "Wisconsin 5% Supplemental Credit.") These instructions pertain to the tax incentives for rehabilitating Certified Historic Structures. Unlike the 20% credit for certified historic buildings, the 10% tax credit is not available to contributing or significant buildings within a National Register Historic District. For more information about the incentives available for non-historic structures built before 1936, you should consult a tax attorney or accountant. The tax credits described in this summary apply only to expenditures made to the exterior or the interior of certified historic structures. The costs of site work, acquisition, and construction of additions are not eligible for the credits. In addition to the tax credit, you may also claim depreciation on your building. The depreciation schedule as of January 1, 1990, is 27.5 years for residential income-producing properties and 31.5 years for other income-producing properties.

WISCONSIN 5% SUPPLEMENTAL CREDIT

In 1989 the State of Wisconsin created a 5% supplement to the already established 20% federal income tax credit. An additional 5% credit can be deducted from Wisconsin income taxes by persons who qualify for the 20% federal program; and receive National Park Service approval before any physical work (including demolition) is begun on the project. (Also established in 1989 was a Wisconsin 25% Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit for non-income-producing historic buildings. Information about that program can be obtained by contacting the Division at 608/264-6491 or 608/264-6490.)

No Yes Yes Part 2 required? Yes Yes Yes Part 3 required? Yes, after work is done Yes, after work is done Yes, after work is done Yes, after work is done Additional Action Required None None None Must formally nominate the property to the National Register. Property must be listed in the Register within 30 months of your taking the credit, or you must repay the credit to the IRS and the Wisconsin Department of Revenue APPLICATION PROCESS OVERVIEW
Tax credit applications are the blue forms in the information packet. Applications in electronic form are available on the web at http://www.nps.gov/history/hps/tps/tax/hpcappl.htm. To take advantage of the historic preservation tax credits, you must submit three applications to this office: 1. A Part l application, the purpose of which is to determine that the building is historically significant. (The Part 1 application is not required for buildings already individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places.) A Part 2 application in which you describe the work that you intend to carry out. The purpose of this application is to demonstrate to the NPS that your project will not destroy the historic qualities of the building. A Request for Certification of Completed Work (usually referred to as the Part 3 application) that you must submit after completion of the work.

Yes

Yes

The historic preservation tax credits allow you to extend the period over which you must meet the "substantial rehabilitation" requirements from two to five years; however, you must formally apply for this option before work begins. For further information, see "Applying for fiveyear certification." If the building is sold after the tax credits are claimed, the IRS and the Wisconsin Department of Revenue will recapture all or part of the credit. The amount of recapture is reduced by 20% per year and after five years there is no recapture. During this period, you are required to obtain NPS approval of any significant additional work that you undertake. In addition to the owners of a building, a lessee may also be eligible for the tax credits if the lease runs for at least l8 years beyond the completion of the rehabilitation project and if the lessee carries out the work. As with any tax incentives, there are subtleties in the law that go beyond the scope of this summary. Any questions that relate to your own tax situation should be addressed to the IRS or a professional tax specialist. For assistance in proceeding through the certification process, contact J el at 608 264-6490 or j . l@wisconsinhistory.org

In addition, owners of buildings that are preliminarily certified (see "Certified Historic Structures,") must submit National Register nominations for their buildings. A summary of the application requirements is given at the top of this page.

BASIC PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY

In order to take advantage of the historic preservation tax incentives, you must: 1. Own (or lease, as described earlier) a "Certified Historic Structure." 2. Use the building for the production of income, according to IRS regulations. 3. "Substantially Rehabilitate" the building. 4. Design and carry out work in conformance with the "Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation." 5. Formally apply to the National Park Service, through the Division for certification of your project. (The NPS charges a fee for its portion of the review. See National Park Service fee schedule.) See the contents on page l for the location of each of these topics.

CERTIFIED HISTORIC STRUCTURES

The term "Certified Historic Structure" as defined in the tax codes means: a building that is individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places; or a building that is located within the boundaries of a National Register historic district and which is determined by the National Park Service to contribute to that district; or a building that is located within the boundaries of a locally designated historic district whose ordinance and boundaries have been certified by the National Park Service -- and where the building has been determined by the NPS to contribute to the district. If your building does not fall into one of the three categories above, you may still take advantage of the tax credits by submitting a Part l application to obtain a preliminary certification of significance. You would then proceed through the certification process; however, within 30 months of the date in which you file your tax return claiming the

3
credit, the building must be listed in the National Register of Historic Places. As indicated in the summary of application requirements, Part 1 applications are also required for projects located within historic districts to establish the building is contributing. Not all buildings within a district are considered contributing to the historic character of the district, because of age or alterations. Once the Part 1 is approved, the property is considered to be a "certified historic structure." Properties listed individually in the National Register are already considered to be "certified historic structures" and, therefore, Part l applications are not required. For further information about completing Part 1 applications, see "Part l Application Instructions."

For all projects with more than $20,000 worth of work, only $250 of the fee is charged at the time of Part 2 review. This is normally billed when the NPS receives your Part 2. They will review your project when they receive this initial fee. Do not send a check before being billed. However, if review of your application is urgent, the NPS can charge the review fee to your credit card. You must complete the Fee Payment form in the application packet to provide credit card authorization. If, however, your project is estimated to cost less than $20,000, the NPS not charge a review fee. When your Part 3 application is received by the NPS, you will be charged the remaining fee, based on the schedule above.

INCOME-PRODUCING REQUIREMENTS
The Federal historic preservation tax credits, and the Wisconsin 5% supplemental credit, apply only to buildings that are income-producing. All certified historic income-producing properties, including residential rental properties, are eligible for the credits. One key to determining whether your property is considered income-producing is whether you can depreciate all or part of it under IRS rules. If only part of your building is income-producing, you may pro-rate the tax credit over that portion of the building. Contact a tax specialist or the IRS for further information. For information on the State historic rehabilitation credit for nonincome-producing properties, contact the Division of Historic Preservation at 608/264-6490 or 608/264-6491 for an information packet.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

To expedite the application process and to increase the likelihood of the National Park Services tax credit approval, the Division of Historic Preservation suggests that you proceed in the following way: 1. Contact the Division to let us know of your intent to apply for the tax incentives. We will check to see if your building is already a "certified historic structure" and can discuss the details of your project to determine whether the work meets NPS standards. Take detailed photographs of the property. For purposes of the Part l application you need to document all sides of the building and show its surroundings. In addition, you should provide representative photographs of the building's interior. For the Part 2 application, you are required to illustrate the pre-project conditions described in the application. You must send two copies of all photographs. Further information about photographic requirements is given in the application instructions sections. Prepare the Part l application (unless your building is listed individually in the National Register). For further information, see the "Part l application instructions" section. While it is not required, many applicants feel the need to hire professional consultants to complete these applications. If you wish to hire a consultant, you can request from the Division a list of persons who have successfully completed National Register nominations and Part 1 applications. Prepare and submit the Part 2 application. Further information about the documentation requirements are given in the "Part 2 application instructions" section and in the State Historical Society publication, "Guidelines for Planning Historic Preservation Tax Credit Projects". Applications that are incomplete or that describe inappropriate work will be returned for revision or augmentation. The Part 2 application may be submitted along with the Part l application. You can expect a response from the NPS within 60 days of the Divisions receipt of your application. Carry out the work. Once the Part 2 application has been approved by the NPS, you may begin work without jeopardizing your tax credits if the work conforms to the approved Part 2 application. It is possible to change some aspects of the project, but all changes must be submitted (along with necessary photos and drawings) to the Division. The Division will then forward them to the NPS for approval. If your property has received only a preliminary determination of significance through the Part 1 application process, (in other words, if it is not individually listed in the National Register or certified as contributing to a National Register district), you should begin immediately to prepare a National Register nomination for

2.

SUBSTANTIAL REHABILITATION REQUIREMENTS

To claim any credit, the IRS requires that you "substantially rehabilitate" your historic building. This means that the amount of money that you spend on the historic rehabilitation (that is, the money that you may claim for purposes of the tax credit) must equal at least $5,000 or the "adjusted basis" of the building, whichever is greater. The adjusted basis is generally the price that you paid for the building (not including land costs), plus any capital improvements that you have made, minus any depreciation that you have already taken. IRS regulations specify that you must meet the "substantial rehabilitation" requirements within a two-year period (at your option, you may choose any two-year period during which you spend the most money on qualified rehabilitation work). If you cannot meet this requirement, you may formally apply as a phased project which allows a five-year period to substantially rehabilitate your building. See "Applying for Five-year Certification".

the property. Contact the Division to begin the process (see Where to go for help). 6. Apply for final certification. In the calendar year you complete the work and place the building in service, you must submit a "Request for Certification of Completed Work" (also referred to as the Part 3 application). To claim your tax credit, the IRS requires you to attach a NPS-signed copy of the approved Part 3 application to your tax return. If your property is not yet a certified historic structure, the NPS cannot sign-off on your Part 3 application, although the work may be approved by letter. You may use the approval letter to claim your credit, but you are required to list your property on the National Register within 30 months of the date in which you claim your tax credits. The NPS can then sign the Part 3, which you must submit to the IRS. Because National Register listing is a time-consuming process, begin this process early! 8. Significant archeological resources affected by a project shall be protected and preserved. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures shall be undertaken

9.

New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction shall not destroy historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall be undertaken in such a manner that if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING PART 1 APPLICATIONS (EVALUATION OF SIGNIFICANCE)

To be eligible for the tax incentives, a building must be a Certified Historic Structure. As an applicant, this means that if your property is not listed individually in the National Register of Historic Places you must complete a Part l application. Generally, it must be submitted no later than the date the building is placed in service, that is, put in use for an income-producing purpose. The majority of the application consists of information that you must provide about the building's physical appearance and the building's historic significance.

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR'S STANDARDS FOR REHABILITATION

Because this program is designed to encourage sensitive rehabilitation of historic buildings, every project is evaluated against a set of standards to ensure that the proposed work will not destroy the buildings that the tax credits were designed to save. These standards, which have been adopted into the tax code, are called "The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation." A copy of the Standards and the accompanying guidelines for rehabilitation may be attached to this information package. If it is not, you may request one free of charge from the Division. Also available is a Wisconsin supplement, "Guidelines for Planning Historic Preservation Tax Credit Projects", that provides guidance on how the Standards are interpreted. The ten Standards are as follows: 1. A property shall be used for its historic purpose or be placed in a new use that requires minimal change to the defining characteristics of the building and its site and environment. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. Each property shall be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or architectural elements from other buildings, shall not be undertaken. Most properties change over time; those changes that have acquired historic significance in their own right shall be retained and preserved. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved Deteriorated historic features shall be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature shall match the old in design, color, texture, and other visual qualities and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features shall be substantiated by documentary, physical, or pictorial evidence. Chemical or physical treatments, such as sandblasting, that cause damage to historic materials shall not be used. The surface cleaning of structures, if appropriate, shall be undertaken using the gentlest means possible

PURPOSE OF THE FORM

For properties contained within historic districts (either National Register or certified local historic districts) the form is designed to demonstrate that the properties contribute to the significance of those districts. Once a Part l certification form has been approved by the NPS, that property is considered to be a Certified Historic Structure. For properties not located in historic districts and not listed individually on the National Register, the Part 1 form serves as a preliminary National Register nomination. The level of documentation for a Part l application is virtually the same as that for a National Register nomination (although the format is not as tightly structured and the narrative can be shorter). In completing the form, you must document that the building is eligible for listing in the Register. When the NPS approves a Part 1 application for this type of building, it states only that the building appears to be eligible for listing in the Register. Once you complete the project and take the tax credits, you will be required to formally list the property in the Register within 30 months.

THE DESCRIPTION OF PHYSICAL APPEARANCE

Every Part 1 application must address the following physical aspects of the building: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Kind of structure (church, dwelling, etc.) Overall shape or plan (rectangular, "L-shaped," etc.) Number of stories Construction material (brick, frame, stone, etc.) Siding or exterior wall covering material

7.

5
6. 7. Roof shapes (Mansard, hipped, gabled, etc.) Important decorative elements (column, porches, towers, windows, etc.) 8. Number, types, and locations of outbuildings, including dates of construction 9. Known substantial alterations or additions, including dates 10. Significant or character-defining interior features and spaces. It is important that you describe and send photographs (2 sets) of both the exterior and the interior of the building. Applications that fail to address interior features will be returned for more information.

In order to describe a wide range of projects the Part 2 application form was designed to be very flexible. Unfortunately, this flexibility can lead to confusion, and often applications must be returned because applicants failed to describe work adequately. These instructions are intended to clarify the procedural requirements for applying for certification of your rehabilitation plans. Please refer to "Guidelines for Planning Historic Preservation Tax Credit Projects" for information on National Park Service standards and documentation requirements. COMMON MISTAKES AND OMISSIONS Most applications are returned to applicants for the following reasons: 1. Lack of photographic documentation. Because it is impossible to visit every tax project, we rely on photographs supplied by applicants to illustrate pre-project conditions. Each applicant is required to submit two sets of clear photographs that show all of the conditions described in the application. These need not be larger than snapshot size, but "instant" (so-called Polaroid) photographs are not acceptable. Two sets of photographs are required in order that the Division have a record set of photos after sending one set to the NPS. Photos should be clearly labeled by location, or keyed to a plan. Loose, unmounted photographs are preferred to simplify our filing process. High quality color photocopies are satisfactory for the second set -- black and white photocopies are not. 2. Lack of adequate plans. In most cases, in order to describe the work, plans or other drawings are required. For example, when interior work involves alteration of interior features, the NPS requires that before-and-after floor plans be submitted. If you submit plans or other drawings, please remember to submit two copies. As with the photographs, one copy is sent to the NPS and one record copy is kept in our files. Often, applicants who have already produced complete sets of plans and specifications for a project will submit instead summary materials. In most cases, those summary materials leave out important information that we and the NPS need to review a project. If you have already prepared plans and specifications, you should send them with the application. 3. Lack of required signatures. The NPS and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) require that applications be signed by all owners of a rehabilitated property, and that the names, addresses, and taxpayer identification numbers of those owners be indicated on the application. The IRS requires that all partners give their names and taxpayer identification numbers on an application. A general partner who is in the process of soliciting partners at the time of application should include a statement that the names of the remaining partners are unknown, but that they will be submitted at a later date. 4. Failure to describe significant aspects of a project. Sometimes, applicants do not describe those parts of a project that they do not feel are important, such as interior

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE
The statement of significance is the most important aspect of the Part 1 application -- and the most technically difficult. You may wish to hire a consultant to prepare your Part l application, especially if your building does not lie within a registered or certified historic district. If so, the Division staff can provide you with list of consultants who have successfully prepared Part 1 applications and National Register nominations. See Where to go for help. If your building is located within a historic district, the information that you provide in this area must be designed to show that the building contributes to the significance of that district. Your first step should be to find out why the district is significant by checking the National Register or local district nomination form. You may obtain a copy of these nominations by contacting the Division. If your building is not located in a historic district and is not listed in the National Register, you must show that the building is eligible for listing in the Register. The statement of significance required for this type of building is equivalent to what is required for a National Register nomination and all applications are evaluated for significance using National Register criteria. This means that you must demonstrate that your building: 1. is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; or 2. is associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; or 3. embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master architect or builder, or possess high artistic values, or represents a significant or distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or 4. has yielded, or is likely to yield, information important to prehistory or history. The statement of significance for buildings that are less than fifty years old; moved; reconstructed; birthplaces of important individuals; primarily commemorative in nature; or owned or used by religious institutions may have to address additional criteria set forth in National Register regulations. Please consult with the Division staff if your building falls into one of these "exceptional" categories. Sources of information used in the statement of significance, especially quotations, should be specified with proper references to documents, titles, dates, and pages. Heresy or common knowledge cannot be used to establish significance.

rehabilitation. The NPS considers all parts of a project to be important and requires applicants to address all aspects of project work including interior work, new construction, demolition of nearby structures, and installation of new mechanical and electrical systems. 5. Reformatting the application. The NPS requires that applications be submitted on the standard forms, although it is possible to modify the section in which the work is described. If you feel that the blocks in the application are too small for all of the information that you need to give, you can either put the additional information on continuation sheets or create your own similar format, as on a computer. If you elect to do the latter, please include the references to photos and drawings contained at the bottom of the left-hand block. 6. Submission of unidentified application materials and amendments. Applicants often send or hand deliver plans and supplementary materials with no cover letters or project identification. Under these circumstances, it is possible for the materials to be misdirected or not acted upon. Any additional information or changes to your proposal should be described on the NPS Continuation/Amendment Sheet, which is included in the application packet with the other blue application forms. It should be completed and signed by the owner. APPLYING FOR FIVE-YEAR CERTIFICATION
Ordinarily, as a tax applicant, you would have two years in which to meet the "substantial rehabilitation" requirements for purposes of claiming the credits. It is possible under this program to meet those requirements in a five-year period if the project is phased. You should formally apply for this option before work begins on the project or have architectural plans that demonstrate your intention to complete the project in phases from the outset. To apply for a phased project, you should submit plans for the complete project and a signed letter with your application in which you:

Review your project preliminarily to try to discover areas where work that you propose may not meet the Standards. (Any such requests, however, should be made in writing and should be accompanied by sufficient photographs and a description of the work to allow the division to make a reasonably good evaluation.) Provide you with lists of professional consultants who have successfully prepared Part l applications and National Register nominations.

For advice about completing the Part l certification application, call Joe DeRose at 608/264-6512 or joe.derose@wisconsinhistory.org. For information on listing a building in the National Register of Historic Places contact Mary Georgeff at 608/264-6498 or mary.georgeff@wisconsinhistory.org. All other tax certification inquiries should be made to the architect in your tax credit region. See map at right. Certified historic buildings qualify to use the historic building code in Wisconsin. This can be helpful in solving difficult code compliance problems. For information on the historic building code contact Lynn Lecount, Division of Safety and Building at the Department of Commerce, 201 W. Washington Ave., 4th fl., Madison at 608 267-2496 or llecount@commerce.state.wi.us . For help in designing projects, we suggest that you hire an architect. The Division cannot make recommendations about which architects to hire. We suggest that you refer to the listing of architects in your telephone book or contact the American Institute of Architects, Wisconsin at 608 257-8477 or www.aiaaccess.com. For advice about your tax circumstances, you should contact tax specialists, such as tax lawyers or accountants, or the Internal Revenue Service.

HISTORIC HOMEOWNERS TAX CREDIT PROGRAM APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION Wisconsin homeowners can claim a 25% state income tax credit for rehabilitation of their historic personal residences. To qualify, an owner must spend at least $10,000 on eligible work and must submit a tax credit application. The application must be approved before work begins. The maximum credit per project is $10,000, or $5,000 for married persons filing separately. OVERVIEW AND PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM This tax credit program was created to assist historic homeowners who are willing to use a high standard of care when specifying work and selecting materials in order to avoid harming the historic character of their houses and causing damage to their building materials. The program is administered by the Division of Historic Preservation Public History of the Wisconsin Historical Society. Homeowners must apply for the credit before work begins and must send photographs and a clear description of the proposed work. For each application, the Society has two primary duties: 1) to certify that the property is historic; and 2) to certify that the proposed work is sympathetic to the historic character of the house and will not cause it physical harm. The Society also certifies that completed work has been carried out as specified in the approved application. Once their applications have been approved, homeowners may claim tax credits when they file their state income tax forms, based on money that they have spent for eligible work. When work has been completed, homeowners must send photographs and a notification that the work has been completed. Except as mentioned above, all laws and regulations pertaining to this program are the responsibility of the Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR). 4. REQUIREMENTS To qualify for this tax credit you must meet the following conditions: 1. Your property must be located in Wisconsin and it must be your personal residence. It cannot be used actively in a trade or business, held for the production of income, or held for sale or other disposition in the ordinary course of trade or business.

2. Your property must be historic. It must be certified to be one of the following: listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the State Register of Historic Places; contributing to a national register or state register historic district; or, eligible for individual listing in the state register. (See "Historic Property," page 2.) 3. You must apply to receive the credit. Before you start the work, you must submit: a Part 1 application and photographs so that staff can certify that your property is historic; and a Part 2 application and photographs to illustrate the proposed work so that staff can certify that it will not diminish your propertys historic character. (You must receive Part 2 approval before you begin any work for which you plan to claim the tax credits.) After the work is done, you must submit a Request for Certification of Completed Work, along with after photographs to verify that work was carried out as described in the Part 2 application. You must spend at least $10,000 on eligible project work within a two-year period, which can be extended to five years. Work that does not qualify for the tax credit, such as decorative interior work, does not count toward meeting this requirement. (See Eligible Work, page 2.) All work must meet "The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation," including work that may not qualify for the tax credits. You must complete all work within two years of the time that you begin physical work, unless you apply to have the work phased over an extended period of up to 5 years. To qualify for 5 year phasing, you must submit a phasing plan before you begin. (See "Expenditure Period," page 3.) You will be required to own and maintain the historic character of your property for a period of five years after you have taken the tax credit or pay back all, or a portion of the tax credit. (See Recapture, page 3).

ELIGIBLE WORK You may claim the tax credit only for the following work: The exterior of a building. (The building can be an addition or outbuilding if it is determined to contribute to the historical significance of the property.) Structural elements of the building (see Note 1 below) Heating, ventilating, or air conditioning systems Electrical systems or plumbing, excluding electrical or plumbing fixtures. The interior of a window sash if work is done to the exterior of the window sash. Architectural fees The cost of preparing a State Register nomination The following are examples of work that would not qualify for the tax credit but would be reviewed for conformance with the Standards: Work carried out within a 12 month period prior to our receipt of the Part 2 application (see Note 2, below) Installation of wall or attic insulation Interior remodeling or decoration New additions Landscaping and site work Plumbing and electrical fixtures Work on additions or outbuildings that do not contribute to the historical significance of the property.
NOTES 1. "Structural elements" are portions of a building necessary to prevent physical collapse, including footings, beams, posts, columns, purlins, rafters, foundation walls, interior wall structures, and exterior wall structures, excluding finish materials, such as plaster, lath, and decorative trim. 2. The reason for the 12-month rule is to prevent owners from carrying out unsympathetic work (work that would result in denial of a project) before submitting a Part 2 application. 3. If you are unsure whether work is eligible for the credit . . . At times, it may be difficult to determine whether a work item qualifies for a tax credit. Not all work falls neatly into the categories of eligible work listed above; therefore, judgments must sometimes be made. For example, while it may be reasonable to assume that installation of a hot water heater falls into the category of plumbing systems, refinishing a wood floor clearly does not qualify as work on a structural system. State statutes give the Society very limited authority. We are responsible for certifying that properties are historically significant and that work is compatible with the historic character of a property. The remaining authority rests with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR). Although the Society will likely notify you if work is clearly outside the scope of the program, it is up to you to determine what expenses you would like to claim as a credit. Then, as with any other claim, you should keep records and be prepared to justify your claim. DOR may consult with the Society about the eligibility of certain items of work.

EXPENDITURE PERIOD THE STANDARD TWO-YEAR EXPENDITURE PERIOD Ordinarily, you must spend $10,000 on eligible work within 2 years of the date that you begin work. If you plan to carry out work over a longer period of time, you may want to extend the expenditure period to 5 years. This is particularly true if your project will not meet the $10,000 expenditure requirement in the first 2 years, but will exceed it within a 5-year period. HOW TO APPLY FOR A FIVE-YEAR EXPENDITURE PERIOD To extend the expenditure period from 2 to 5 years, you need to submit a "Request for Five-Year Project Phasing" (WTC:004) along with your Part 2 application. The application package contains a copy of the form. When filling out this form, remember to list all of the work in the Part 2 application and then to break it down into annual phases for the five-year phasing plan.
NOTE You may submit a phasing plan for an expenditure period less than five years. For example, if you expect your project to continue for only 3 years, simply leave years 4 and 5 blank.

COMPLETING THE PART 1 APPLICATION
1. NAME OF PROPERTY If your house is individually listed on the national register or state register, use that name; otherwise, use the street address. If your project involves work on outbuildings, include them in the property name. For example, The Samuel Smith House, Barn, and Silo or 1341 Main Street - House and Carriage House. Be sure to check the type of certification that you are requesting and give the name of the historic district name, if applicable. You do not have to describe the following features (of your house and all outbuildings) if they are evident from your photos: Number of stories Construction materials (brick, frame, stone, etc.) Siding or exterior wall covering materials Roof shapes (Mansard, hipped, gabled, etc.) Important decorative elements. Significant interior features and spaces. 7. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE To preliminarily certify your house for the tax credit, Division staff needs to be able to determine that it is eligible for listing in the State Register of Historic Places. A propertys historical significance is more than a matter of age. It must be significant for specific reasons -- that is, it must meet criteria for listing in the state register. Also, it must have physical integrity; it cannot have been severely altered. Staff uses the information and photographs that you provide to determine whether your building meets State Register criteria. In your application, you must demonstrate that your building: Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; or Is associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; or Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master architect or builder, or possesses high artistic values, or represents a significant or distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or Has yielded, or is likely to yield, information important to prehistory or history.

2. OWNER Give the names and Social Security numbers of all of the houses owners. 3. PROJECT CONTACT Complete this only if there is another person to whom inquiries should be made about the Part 1 application, such as an architect or a consultant. PHOTOGRAPHS All applications require clear photographs of the current appearance of all sides of the building and its surroundings. If you are applying for preliminary certification, you need to send interior and other detail photographs, as indicated in item 8 below. OWNER'S CERTIFICATION All owners must sign and date the application.

4.

5.

ONLY COMPLETE THE BACK SIDE OF THE PART 1 APPLICATION IF YOU ARE APPLYING FOR PRELIMINARY CERTIFICATION. The purpose of items 6-8 is to give Division staff enough information to determine that your property is individually eligible for listing in the State Register of Historic Places. If your property is already listed in the state or national registers, or is contained within a historic district, you do not have to complete items 6-8. 6. BUILDING DATA Indicate the date that the building was constructed and your source for that date. Indicate dates when the building was altered or moved. The following features require written descriptions or drawings (for your house and all outbuildings): Overall shape or plan, such as rectangular or Lshaped. (Drawings or sketches may be necessary.) Known substantial alterations or additions, including dates. If outbuildings exist, the number, types, and locations should be shown on a site map.

If you use quotations or other documented references in the statement of significance, you should refer to document titles, dates, and pages. Hearsay or common knowledge is not acceptable to establish a houses significance.
The statement of significance is the most important aspect of the Part 1 application -- and the most technically difficult. You may wish to hire a consultant to prepare your Part 1 application. If so, our staff can provide you with a list of consultants who have successfully prepared Part 1 applications and State Register nominations.

8.

ADDITIONAL PHOTOGRAPHS In completing items 6-8, you must send photographs of both the exterior and interior of the building, as well as the site and outbuildings. You must include enough photographs to show the appearance of your house, its site, and outbuildings to our staff. Photographs should be keyed to floor plans and site plans. Applications with insufficient photographs to demonstrate your houses appearance will be returned for more information.

page 4
COMPLETING THE PART 2 APPLICATION
The Part 2 application is where you list and describe the work that you intend to carry out so that our staff can determine whether it will be sympathetic with the historic character of your property. It also serves as a list of approved work that you may present to the DOR if your expenses are questioned. You must complete both sides of the Part 2 application. ITEMS 1-4 NAME OF PROPERTY; OWNER; PROJECT CONTACT; OWNERS CERTIFICATION Repeat the information that you gave on the Part 1 application. 5. PROJECT DATA These photographs should be color and a miniumum of 3 x 5 in size. Digital photographs are acceptable if they are printed on quality paper at a high resolution and meet the 3 x 5 size requirement. Xerox copies are not acceptable. If necessary in order to understand your application, you should give a brief description of what is being shown. Send photographs "loose"; that is, not mounted on cardboard or in photo holders. Photographs are not returnable. Drawings and manufacturers literature As indicated in the Documentation Requirements publication, you must send drawings or sketches of certain alterations, such as window replacement, changes in floor plan, and new construction. These do not have to be prepared by an architect, but they must be adequate to illustrate what you are trying to achieve. If possible, drawings and other materials should be in 8-1/2" x 11" format. 7. DESCRIPTION OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED

Acceptable

Unacceptable

Photos of the overall appearance of your house should show the whole house, not just parts of it.

This section is divided into two parts: Section 5 - Eligible Work asks for information about work for which you plan to claim the tax credit. If you have questions about whether work is eligible for the credit, see Note 3 under ELIGIBLE WORK on page 2, or contact our office to discuss specific work items. Section 5b - Ineligible Work asks for similar information about additional work that you may be undertaking, or have already carried out as part of a continuing project. In addition to a listing of proposed work, sections 5a and 5b ask for the following: Estimated costs You must give an estimated cost for each of the work items and give a total cost at the bottom of the column. You do not have to obtain firm bids or sign contracts to fill out this section. These are only estimates. You give actual costs at the end of the project when you submit the Request for Certification of Completed Work. Start date Estimate when work will begin for each item. Completion date Estimate when each work item will be completed. Remember that you only have 2 years to complete the eligible work. If the last completion date is more than 2 years after your earliest start date, you should consider submitting a five-year phasing plan. 6. PHOTOGRAPHS AND DRAWINGS

In this section, we ask that you describe the work that you plan to perform, including both the eligible work in Section 5a and the ineligible work in Section 5b. The Documentation Requirements publication lists information that you need to send for various types of work. You may include contractors bids, but only if they include all required information. Projects that are not adequately described will be returned without action.

All applications must be adequately documented. Refer to the "Documentation Requirements" publication that was included with your application package. Because staff cannot visit every tax credit project, approvals are made on the basis of your photographs. You must include pre-project photos of the overall appearance of all four sides of your house (these can be the Part 1 application photos) and also detail photographs of those areas where you plan to carry out work, both interior and exterior. (see example at right)

Page 5
AMENDMENTS As you carry out your project, you may want to amend its details. You may amend at any time until the completed project is certified. Typical amendments would involve adding work items or revising construction details. To amend, you must send a written amendment and all changes must be approved in writing and in advance. To amend your project, send us a letter. There is no amendment form. The letter must contain the following: 1. 2. 3. Your name and the address of the property. A statement making it clear that you want to amend your project. The following documentation: If you are adding work to the project. Send a description, an estimate of the costs, the dates in which the work is to be carried out and, when necessary, send photographs. If you are deleting work from the project. Indicate the work you would like to remove. If you are changing the details of work already approved. Send a description of how the work is to be amended, and indicate how the costs or dates will be affected. Your signature RECAPTURE You are responsible for maintaining the historic character of your property for five years after you claim the tax credit. If, during that time, you sell the property or carry out additional work that diminishes its historical significance, you will be required to pay back a prorated portion of the tax credit. If you carry out additional work during the recapture period, you must request and receive the written approval of the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) before beginning the work.
The proration schedule works as follows: If recapture is triggered within the first year, you must pay back the entire credit. During the second year, you pay 80%. During the third year, 60%, During the fourth year, 40%. During the fifth year, 20%. After the end of the fifth year, there is no payback requirement.

COMPLETING THE REQUEST FOR CERTIFICATION OF COMPLETED WORK The Request for Certification of Completed Work has three purposes: To demonstrate to the Society that you have carried out the work as stated in your Part 2 application To establish for DOR the actual, final cost of your project for purposes of calculating your tax credit. To close-out your project. You must send a "Request for Certification of Completed Work" within 90 days of the completion date for tax crediteligible work. If we do not receive an acceptable form, the credit may be rescinded or recaptured. You must supply photographic documentation including photos of the overall appearance of all four sides of your house, as well as after photos corresponding to the pre-project photos that you sent with the Part 2 application.

NOTE A project needs to be formally amended so that there will be a clear indication of what is, and is not, included in the application in the event that a project is examined by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR).

CLAIMING THE CREDIT Once your Part 2 application is approved, the Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR) allows you to claim the credit as you go, beginning in the tax year that you begin to spend money on approved eligible work. You claim the credit when you fill out your state income tax forms by completing Schedule HR (available from the DOR) and attaching either a copy of the signed Part 2 application or, after your project has been completed, a copy of the approved Request for Certification of Completed Work. If your tax credit is greater than your tax liability, you can carry unused portions of the credit forward until you use it up, or for 15 years, whichever comes first. PRORATION OF TAX CREDITS If part of your house is also used for the production of income, you may be able to claim this tax credit for the portion that is your residence. You may also be able to claim federal and state tax credits for rehabilitation of the income-producing portion. Proration is made on a square footage basis. The rules for prorating the credit are complicated. Contact Mark Buechel at 608-264-6491 or Jen Davel at 608-264-6490 for additional information. You may also contact the DOR at 608-266-2772 for further information about the proration of credits.

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR'S STANDARDS FOR REHABILITATION
1. A property shall be used for its historic purpose or be placed in a new use that requires minimal change to the defining characteristics of the building and its site and environment. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. Each property shall be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or architectural elements from other buildings, shall not be undertaken. Most properties change over time; those changes that have acquired historic significance in their own right shall be retained and preserved. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved. Deteriorated historic features shall be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature shall match the old in design, color, texture, and other visual qualities and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features shall be substantiated by documentary, physical, or pictorial evidence. Chemical or physical treatments, such as sandblasting, that cause damage to historic materials shall not be used. The surface cleaning of structures, if appropriate, shall be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Significant archeological resources affected by a project shall be protected and preserved. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures shall be undertaken. New additions, exterior alterations or related new construction shall not destroy historic materials that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment. PLEASE NOTE THAT...
1. The rules governing this program are subject to legislative change. If you plan to apply, please contact either Mark Buechel or Jen Davel to discuss your project and to make certain that the forms and instructions are current. 2. Society staff cannot answer questions about your specific tax situation. You should refer these questions to a tax lawyer or accountant, or to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR). 3. Although the statutes allow a maximum $10,000 tax credit per project, they do not define the term project. Owners may submit applications for more than one project, thereby claiming as much as $10,000 in tax credits for each project. 4. Applicants under this program may still be subject to the Wisconsin Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). This may affect your ability to claim a credit. 5. By statute, only "natural" persons may claim the credit. Corporate entities are ineligible. 6. Projects that involve state or federal funds, license, or permit may be required to undergo a separate review to ensure that they will have no adverse effect on significant historic or prehistoric resources. This review is separate from, and not binding on, the tax program review. 7. Projects involving locally landmarked properties may need to be reviewed under local statutes, which is a process separate from reviews carried out under this program; furthermore, design decisions made by local commissions are not binding on this program.

Under this program, all work that you carry out, including work that may not qualify for the tax credits, must meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation (or, simply, the Standards). This pamphlet describes the most common types of work, whether the work qualifies for the tax credit, and the documentation that you need to send with your tax credit application. Here are three things that to keep in mind when you plan your project: 1. This program does not require you to restore your house. If your house has been changed in the past, you are not required to remove the alterations. You can leave the alterations in place and "work around them." For example, if you plan to replace your furnace, you are not required to rebuild your missing front porch. On the other hand, if you are working on features that have been altered, you will need to design the work to be sympathetic to your houses original features. If, for example, you plan to replace a later porch from the 1970s, the new porch must match the original, historic porch. You must not create a false impression of what is, and is not, historic. You should not add features that never existed historically. You must consider the long and short term structural effect of any proposed work that you carry out. Some types of work, such as sandblasting, waterproof sealing of masonry, and installation of artificial siding can lead to accelerated deterioration and should not be performed. Other types of work, such a blowing-in wall insulation, should be designed to avoid future damage.

BUILDING EXTERIOR
The extent to which you can change a building's exterior appearance depends on the visibility of the area in which the changes are to take place. Generally, the less visible the side of a building, the more changes that can be made. For purposes of the discussion below, a primary facade is one that is highly visible from public rights of way and, in most cases, has significant architectural detailing. A secondary facade is one that is generally visible from public rights-of-way, but may not contain any distinguishing architectural features. A rear facade is one that is usually not seen by the public and contains no architectural decoration. As a rule, primary facades should be left as intact as possible, while rear facades can be altered more substantially.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION...

REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ORIGINAL FEATURES
Eligibility: Repair or re-creation of original exterior features qualifies you for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photographs of the feature to be repaired or replaced Narrative: ( ) State the condition of the feature and describe why it is being replaced ( ) In the case of repair, describe briefly, the methods to be used ( ) In the case of replacement state whether the feature will be replaced in-kind or, if not, describe how the replacement will differ from the original

EXTERIOR PAINTING
Eligibility: Exterior painting qualifies for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photographs of all side of the building to be painted Narrative: ( ) If the project involves paint removal, describe the methods to be used. See "Exterior Building Cleaning" for guidance in documenting paint removal

Exterior painting does not require a lengthy description of the methods or colors. Nearly all colors are acceptable. We suggest that you use colors that are appropriate to your houses design and that you not use more than four colors in your paint scheme. Exterior painting is likely to be denied under the following circumstances: The method used to remove existing paint may damage the building materials; Plans call for painting previously unpainted brick or masonry; The proposed color placement is out-of-character with the historic building, such as a mural or other novelty paint scheme.

"Feature" refers to everything from wood trim to larger items, such as porches. Repair of exterior features is the most common type of exterior work. It is nearly always acceptable for purposes of this program as long as the method of repair does not cause damage to the surrounding materials. Closely related to repair is the re-creation of original elements. This, too, is allowable if the application materials demonstrate that: the original feature cannot be repaired satisfactorily; the new feature will accurately replicate the original; and the amount of replacement is not excessive (For example, an entire cornice is replaced because a small section has deteriorated.) Sound, original materials are part of the history of the house and should be left in-place while the deteriorated sections are repaired or replicated.

Your method of paint removal or preparation must be described in the application. Several paint removal methods are usually acceptable, including wet or dry scraping, chemical paint removal, and use of a high pressure water spray, if the water pressure is carefully controlled so that it does not damage the wood. Sandblasting and similar abrasive blasting techniques, wet or dry, are not acceptable and will result in the denial of your project. Please note that, because premature paint failure is usually the result of poor preparation or use of improper paint, we suggest that you hire experienced contractors or consult with a paint dealer or specialist before undertaking the job. The Society can send you free published information on this topic. See the For Further Information... section.

EXTERIOR MASONRY CLEANING
Eligibility: Removal of dirt or paint from exterior brick or stone qualifies for the tax credit if it is does not harm the building materials.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Close-up photographs of the building surfaces prior to cleaning Narrative: ( ) Describe cleaning method in detail, including types of chemicals to be used and water wash pressure ( ) Indicate whether a test panel is to be applied and, if so, on what part of the building

If you plan to remove paint or dirt from the outside of your building, the methods to be used should be specified in the application. Below are some things that you should consider. In most cases, removal of dirt or paint is unnecessary in order to preserve a building. Dirt and paint are rarely harmful to building materials and, in fact, may serve as a protective layer that shields the surfaces of the buildings from the elements. Also, because every method of exterior cleaning carries with it some risk of damage to masonry materials, you should consider carefully whether to clean the building at all. If you choose to remove dirt or paint, you should proceed very cautiously.

If you intend to clean your building chemically, please be aware that no chemical or chemical manufacturer is "preapproved" for use in this program. Building materials vary widely in composition and chemicals that may be applied safely to one building can result in severe damage to another. In addition, some chemical companies specify that the chemicals be washed from the building at water pressures in excess of 1000 p.s.i. which, in itself, can damage a building. For this reason, it is a requirement that a cleaning test patch be applied to an inconspicuous part of the building prior to cleaning the entire building. The owner should inspect the test patch for possible damage to the building materials, including mortar joints in masonry walls, and should be used as a standard by which the rest of the cleaning is evaluated. Damage to the masonry from inappropriate cleaning will disqualify your project from the tax credit program. In cleaning metal elements, you should determine whether the metals are ferric or non-ferric. Ferric metals contain iron and are prone to rusting. Non-ferric metals, such as brass, bronze, copper, and aluminum, are non-rusting. (The simplest way to determine whether a metal is ferric is to use a magnet. Ferric metals will attract a magnet; non-ferric metals will not.) If exterior metal elements are ferric (iron-based) it should be determined whether those elements are cast iron or coated metal. Generally, cast iron is used in storefront columns and trim; otherwise, any metal trim is likely to be terne or zinc coated steel. Cast iron may be sandblasted to remove dirt or paint but coated steel should be hand-scraped to remove only the loose paint before repainting. Sandblasting coated steel will remove the protective coating and will ultimately lead to severe rusting. In general, because most non-ferric metals do not corrode, they do not require cleaning and, in fact, can be damaged through the cleaning process. We recommend strongly that non-ferric metals not be cleaned. Regardless of the methods used to clean your building's exterior, they should be specified in the application along with your intention to create and inspect a test patch. If you plan to clean all or part of your building, you must submit clear, close-up photographs of the parts of the building to be cleaned before the cleaning takes place.

The Standards specifically prohibit sandblasting in any form (except to clean cast iron, as discussed below). Sandblasting is sometimes referred to by other names, such as abrasive blasting or "featherblasting." When the sand is mixed with water, it is usually called waterblasting. If any of these methods are used, your project will be denied certification because of the damage that these methods cause. Equally damaging is high-pressure water blasting, even when no sand or other aggregate is added to the water. Water pressures above 1000 p.s.i. (pounds of pressure per square inch) can be damaging to most building materials. If you intend to use water to clean your building, you must specify in the application the pressure to be used.

4
TUCKPOINTING
Eligibility: Tuckpointing and other masonry repair qualifies for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Close up photos of the masonry surfaces prior to tuckpointing Narrative: ( ) Describe the methods to be used in removing loose mortar ( ) Specify the replacement mortar mix ( ) Indicate whether a test panel is to be applied and, if so, on what

part of the building Tuckpointing (also referred to as "repointing") refers to the replacement of deteriorated mortar in brick and stone buildings. If done improperly, it can cause structural as well as visual damage. The method used to remove loose mortar is an important consideration. Hand chiseling of deteriorated joints is the method least likely to cause damage to the brickwork; however, it is sometimes difficult to find contractors willing to hand-chisel the joints. Removing mortar with saws, grinders, or power chisels can sometimes be performed without damaging the bricks, but when these methods are employed carelessly, they can cause permanent structural damage to the masonry. It is important in the case of saw-cutting or grinding that the bricks not be cut into and in power-chiseling that the corners not be chipped away. Regardless of the method used to remove loose mortar, we recommend that a test patch be specified, as discussed below. In addition to the method used to remove the mortar, it is equally important that the composition of the new mortar match that of the building. Too often, especially in brick walls, mortar joints are repointed with Portland cement compounds that are harder than the bricks themselves. Then, when the building experiences thermal contraction and expansion, the faces of the bricks crack and fall off. New mortar should contain enough hydrated lime to make it softer than the bricks. (A useful rule of thumb is that mortar used in pre-1875 buildings should contain at least 3 times as much lime as Portland cement; buildings built between 1875 and 1900 should contain at least a 2 to 1 ratio of lime to Portland cement, and post-1900 buildings should contain at least one part hydrated lime to each part Portland cement.) Because of the potential damage that can result from any type of tuckpointing, we recommend strongly that only those joints that are deteriorated be repointed. If done properly, the repointed joints will match those of the rest of the building. This is the most economical procedure, as well as the best historic preservation practice. Mortar joints that appear to be sound can be expected to last well into the future. The appearance of the new joints should match those of the rest of the building, especially if only the deteriorated joints are to be tuckpointed. Mismatched mortar joints can result in the building taking on a "patchwork quilt" appearance. The primary concerns here are the color of the replacement mortar and the tooling. With respect to color, if the mortar mix

contains Portland cement, we recommend that white Portland cement be used along with appropriate coloring agents. Standard, gray Portland cement usually results in joints that do not match the original color. In addition, if the tooling of the new mortar joints does not match the original, they may appear to be wider than the rest. Ultimately, you will be responsible for the work of the contractor. If the completion photos that you submit show mortar joints that do not match the width, color, or appearance of the original joints, you may be denied final certification of your project. Therefore, we require that you specify in your contract with the mason that a test patch (a sample area of repointed joints) be carried out. After the test patch is applied, it must be inspected by the owner to make sure that the appearance of the new joints matches that of the rest of the building and that the masonry units have not been damaged. The repointing contract should specify that all of the repointed joints will match the appearance of the approved test patch.

Your description of the work in the application should indicate

ASTM STANDARD MORTAR MIXES

Type of Mortar M S N O K Portland Cement 1 1 1 1 1 Hydrated lime 1/4 1/2 1 2 4 Sand 3 4 1/2 6 9 15 Strength p.s.i. 2500 1800 750 350 75

Notes: Type N is standard, pre-packaged masonry cement. Types M and S are generally too hard for historic brick

the mortar formula to be used, the method of removing loose mortar, and that a test patch will be performed.

WINDOW REPLACEMENT
Eligibility: Window replacement qualifies for the tax credit; however the standards for this work are applied very strictly. Please read this section carefully.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Close-up representative photos of existing windows Narrative: ( ) Describe the condition of the windows to be replaced ( ) Described the reasons for the replacement ( ) If the new window is to be aluminum, indicate whether it will have a baked or an anodized finish ( ) Indicate whether the glass is to be single- or double-glazed ( ) Indicate whether the glass will be clear, tinted, or "Low-E." In the case of "Low-E" glass, you will be required to submit a sample along with your application. Drawings: ( ) Head, jamb, sill, and muntin scale drawings of both the existing and the new windows. (For windows with no muntins, we will accept manufacturers literature in lieu of scale drawings.)

If windows are to be replaced, the replacements must duplicate in every respect the appearance of the original windows, including the appearance of the muntins (dividing bars), the proportions of the original windows, the thickness of the sash elements, and the window finishes. To demonstrate that the new windows match the old, the you must either submit comparative window sections, such as those illustrated. If your windows have no muntins, we will usually accept manufacturers literature in lieu of custom drawings, if the proposed windows are illustrated clearly. Another requirement when aluminum windows are used as substitutes for wooden windows is that the glass be set back from the faces of the frames by approximately the same distance as in wooden windows which, typically, would have a "putty line." The glazing in wooden windows is held in place with either putty or wooden stops which sets the glass approximately 1/2" back from the face of the window frame. On the other hand, the glazing in many aluminum windows is held in place by a metal flange. The result is that the glass is set back from the frame by only about 1/8" which causes the window sashes to look "flat" and out-of-character with most buildings. Muntin (window divider) duplication is a significant problem in replacement windows. In most cases, artificial muntins are unacceptable, including those that are applied on the exterior, those applied on the interior (sometimes called "snap-in" muntins), and those sandwiched between the layers of double glazing. Replacement windows that incorporate true muntins (that actually divide the panes of glass) are usually acceptable if the appearances of the new muntins substantially replicate those of the original windows. Because window manufacturers routinely change and improve their products, Society staff are willing to consider new muntin replacement techniques; however, to be acceptable, the new muntins must accurately replicate the originals and must be permanent parts of the windows. If you are replacing wooden windows with new aluminum units, the new windows must have a painted or baked-on finish, rather than an anodized finish. Anodized finishes, particularly bronze-colored finishes, have a distinctly metallic appearance that is inappropriate when aluminum windows are being substituted for wooden windows.

In planning your project, we recommend strongly that you repair existing windows, rather than replacing them. Usually, these windows can be made energy efficient by installing weatherstripping, and at a far lower cost than installation of replacements. Tax applicants often propose to replace original windows with energy-efficient, "maintenance free" units. Often these units do not duplicate the historical appearance of the windows they are designed to replace. The use of

inappropriate new windows will result in denial of your project. If you plan to replace windows, please consider the comments below. When you prepare your application, you must document photographically that the existing windows have deteriorated beyond repair. Your application should state the nature of the deteriorated and should include close-up photographs of a number of the windows clearly showing the damage.

6
The use of tinted and reflective glass is not allowed. If you propose using Low-E glass, which can be reflective, depending on the manufacturer, you must demonstrate that the new glass will not be reflective. Usually, this is done by including a glass sample (provided by the window supplier) along with the Part 2 application. If you plan to use panning (metal covering) over the outside window framing, it must conform in shape to the existing window moldings and it should not have an anodized finish. proportions of the storm windows match those of the original windows. If you plan to install storm windows, you should include manufacturer's literature or drawings (head, jamb, and sill details). You should also describe the type of finish to be used. As in the case of aluminum primary windows, the finishes should be painted or baked-on, rather than anodized. Storm window glass should be clear and "Low-E" glass should follow the guidelines for replacement windows.

CLOSING-UP WINDOW OPENINGS OR ADDING NEW WINDOWS

Eligibility: Adding and removing windows is discouraged, except to reverse later window alterations or where the changes have limited visibility. If acceptable, this work qualifies for the tax credit. Please read this section carefully.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) The sides of building where windows will be added or removed Narrative: ( ) For infilled windows, describe the type of infill and tell whether the infill will be flush with the surface of the building or set-back (and, if so, the depth of the setback) ( ) For new windows, refer to the documentation for window replacement. Drawings: ( ) Drawings of the sides of the building showing the locations of added or removed windows

STORM WINDOWS
Eligibility: Storm window installation qualifies for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Close-up representative photos of existing windows Narrative: ( ) If the storm windows are to be aluminum, indicate whether they will have a baked or an anodized finish ( ) Indicate whether the glass will be clear, tinted, or "Low-E." In the case of tinted or "Low-E" glass, you will be required to submit a sample along with your application Drawings: ( ) Manufacturers literature that shows clearly the appearance of the new storm -- or scale drawings.

Original window patterns should not be changed on primary facades. On secondary facades, minor changes may be made, but these must be in keeping with the overall window patterns of those sides of the building. On rear facades with limited public visibility, significant changes can usually be made; however, they must be in character with the rest of the building. (See the "General Discussion" remarks above for a discussion of primary, secondary, and rear facades.) On masonry buildings, when original windows are closed-in, the infill material should match those of the wall and should be inset from the face of the wall at least two inches. Nonoriginal windows can usually be closed flush to the wall surfaces with matching materials. For new windows, the application should contain drawings similar to those specified in the window replacement section.

For purposes of maintenance and energy efficiency you may wish to install interior or exterior storm windows instead of replacing the original windows. Exterior storm windows can be made of wood or metal. Aluminum combination windows are acceptable as long as the window tracks are mounted so as not to protrude from the face of window openings and the

7
ROOF REPLACEMENT
Eligibility: Roof replacement is eligible for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photos of the existing roofing Drawings: ( ) Manufacturer's literature or samples of roofing materials other than standard 3-tab asphalt shingles or standard wood shingles

Generally, flat roofs that are not visible from the street require only a brief statement of the proposed roof treatment. For visible, pitched roofs, the application must state the type of replacement material to be used. As a rule, if a roof was originally wood shingled, the replacement shingles may either be replacement wood shingles or standard 3-tab shingles in a shade of gray that resembles weathered wood. In most cases, thick wood "shakes" are not appropriate for buildings in Wisconsin and you should avoid using artificially rusticlooking asphalt, or fiberglass shingles that purport to look like wood shakes.

SKYLIGHTS AND DORMERS

Eligibility: Although skylights are tax credit-eligible, dormer construction is considered to be new construction and not eligible for the tax credit. Skylight and dormer proposals will still be reviewed so that we can determine that they will not diminish the historic character of your house.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photos of the roof from sides of the building affected by the changes Narrative: ( ) A description of where the skylights, vents, or dormers will be installed. Drawings: ( ) Drawings to indicate the appearance of any dormers

Slate or tile roofs should be repaired, if possible, rather than replaced. If replacement is necessary, these roofs should be replaced in-kind; however, in the case of slate, we will usually accept replacement with slate-gray, standard 3-tab shingles if it can be shown that the slates have deteriorated beyond repair. It may be appropriate to use substitute materials, such as concrete shingles, to replace slates or tiles; but the new materials must match the originals closely. If you propose to use substitute materials, you should discuss your plans with Society staff before ordering materials.

Skylights, dormers, and rooftop additions are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Here are some principles: Skylights located on non-visible parts of a roof are generally acceptable. Skylights should not be installed on roof slopes facing the street. On visible roofs that do not face the street, skylights should be kept to a minimum and should be flat, rather than domed. Their curbs should be low. Non-original dormers should be located on non-visible portions of a roof.

ARTIFICIAL SIDING
Eligibility: Installation of artificial siding is not allowed under this program. If carried out as part of your project, it will result in denial of the tax credits for your entire project. The term artificial siding refers primarily to aluminum, vinyl, cement board and steel siding, and may also include synthetic stucco, if your house was not originally stuccocovered.

8
REMOVAL OF ADDITIONS
Eligibility: As long as the additions are later, noncontributing features, demolition of additions qualifies for the tax credit.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photos of the addition Narrative: ( ) Give the condition of the addition and its date of construction Drawings: ( ) If removal will result in re-exposing original walls, provide drawings of how the exposed wall will be treated, or any new construction that will take place where the addition was removed.

Later additions or features may be removed if they do not contribute to the significance of the historic property and if the area from which they are removed is to be restored or rehabilitated sympathetically. Even if an addition is not original to a building, it may still be historically significant. Evidence of whether an addition is considered to be significant is often found in the National Register or State Register nomination for the property. Likewise, if the property is located within a district, you should check the district nomination to see if the feature or addition was added during the period of significance of the district. If so, you must not remove it. When planning demolition, you should contact our staff for a determination of significance of any feature proposed for removal. For further information about how to treat an area after removal of later elements, see "Construction of New Additions."

CONSTRUCTION OF NEW ADDITIONS

Eligibility: Construction of a new addition is not eligible for the credit; however its design must be reviewed as part of the project.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photos of the portion of the building to which the addition will be attached Drawings: ( ) Construction drawings of the addition

It is impossible to develop a hard-and-fast set of rules for new construction that will apply to every situation and every historic building. Each project is reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Consider the following remarks to be general guidance. Location. The appropriateness of a new addition to a historic building is determined largely by its size and location. An addition should be constructed on the least visible side, such that the historic building remains the most prominent element from the public right-of-way. In some cases, particularly when a building is free-standing and visible from all points (in other words, when it has four primary facades), it may not be possible to construct an addition and claim the tax credit. Historic details. New additions should not be historic-looking replicas of the building to which they are attached. The design may incorporate the existing materials and some patterns of the original construction but should not attempt to look like part of the original construction. Connection to historic building. The physical connection between the historic building and the addition should be made as small and least physically disruptive as possible. This creates a visual break between the historic building and the addition. It also, makes the process reversible. If, at some point, a future owner wanted to remove the addition, it would allow them to do so with minimal damage to the historic building.

CONSTRUCTION OF NEW BUILDINGS ON-SITE OR ON ADJACENT LAND

Eligibility: Detached new construction is not eligible for the tax credit; however, it must be described in the Part 2 application.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) That part of the site where the new construction will be located Drawings: ( ) Before-and-after site plans showing the new construction ( ) Plans and elevation drawings of the new construction

All new construction must be described in the application. Even when a new building is to be constructed by someone else, it will be considered to be part of the project if it will be located on property that has been divided from the historic property within one year of the start of rehabilitation work.

9
BUILDING INTERIOR
The rules for this program require that we review all work, including interior work. In reviewing interior work, we try to determine whether the work will have an effect on significant interior features and spaces. We determine significance features from the content of the National or State Register nomination and from the photographs that you include with the application. Significant interior features should be respected and, whenever possible, preserved. We determine whether spaces are significant by examining whether the spaces are "primary" or "secondary." Primary spaces are those that are important to the character of a building and should always be preserved. Secondary spaces can usually be altered. In single family houses, primary spaces usually include living rooms, dining rooms, foyers, main stairways, corridors, and parlors. Secondary spaces may include bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens, rear stairways, basements, and other spaces normally used only by family members. Where interior work is proposed, you must include enough clear photographs of the interior to illustrate the "before" condition of the affected spaces and significant features. If you do not plan to carry out interior work, it is helpful if you say so in the application. Then, when the application is reviewed, the reviewer will know that interior work has not been accidentally omitted. is structural and provide documentation, photographs, of the problem to be corrected. including

If structural work involves removal of some finish materials, such as plaster, drywall, or wood trim, you should be able to include repair or replacement of those materials as part of the eligible tax credit work. Each project will be examined on a case-by-case basis to ensure that any decorative interior work is part of, and incidental to, needed structural repairs. Specific guidelines for various types of structural work are found elsewhere in this document. (For example, if the project involves brick repair, consult the section on "Tuckpointing." If the repair involves adding interior walls, see the section on "Removal or Addition of Interior Walls.") If your project is unusually complex and you would like to know if it meets the Standards, or if you have questions about whether your project qualifies for the tax credit, call Society staff Mark Buechel at 608-264-6491 or Jen Davel at 608-2646490.

REMOVAL OR ADDITION OF INTERIOR WALLS

Eligibility: Interior wall removal or construction is not eligible for the tax credit, except as described under "Structural Repairs." All demolition must be described in the Part 2 application. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Photographs of the spaces affected by the changes ( ) Details of any significant features affected by the alterations Narrative: ( ) A description of the new interior finishes ( ) A statement about whether any walls to be removed are original Drawings: ( ) Before-and-after floor plans If a building contains significant interior spaces, you should work within the existing floor plan when possible. The Standards do not usually allow total gutting of a building unless the interior has been completely altered in the past and possesses no significant features or spaces. In evaluating which spaces can be changed, you should determine which spaces are primary and which are secondary. Generally, walls should not be inserted in, or removed from, primary spaces. Secondary spaces can usually be altered. (See "General Discussion," above, for discussion of primary and secondary spaces.) When your plans calls for changes to interior walls, you will be required to submit "before" and "after" floor plans.

STRUCTURAL REPAIRS
Eligibility: Structural repairs qualify for the tax credit; however, this type of work is narrowly defined.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Clear photographs of that portion of the exterior, or of the interior spaces, affected by the structural work ( ) Details of any significant features affected by the alterations Narrative: ( ) A description of the structural problems that require correction and how these problems are to be solved, including the effect that the work will have on interior or exterior features and finishes ( ) If structural problems are major, include the report of a licensed architect or structural engineer Drawings: ( ) Before-and-after floor plans

While repair of structural elements is an eligible tax credit activity, interior remodeling is not. Because these two types of work are closely associated, the following definition applies: "Structural elements" are portions of a building necessary to prevent physical collapse, including footings, beams, posts, columns, purlins, rafters, foundation walls, interior wall structures and exterior wall structures, excluding finish materials, such as plaster, lath, and decorative trim. To avoid confusion about whether you may take the credit for structural work that might be construed as decorative interior work, you should make clear in the application that the work

10
REMOVAL OR RELOCATION OF INTERIOR TRIM OR FEATURES
Eligibility: Work performed in this area is not eligible for the tax credit; however, it must be described in the Part 2 application. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Details of existing trim and features that may be affected Narrative: ( ) A description of the new materials, if any, that will replace the originals ( ) If applicable, indicate where existing features will be relocated Whether interior trim or features can be removed depends on the significance of those features. The Standards consider both highly-decorated features (such as grand staircases) and characteristic features (such as original window trim) to be significant and, whenever possible, these should remain intact. If original features have to be replaced during construction, they should be re-installed (or, if this is impossible, reproduced) in their original locations. Avoid moving original decorative elements to new locations. A project may be denied certification if the effect of the interior work is to create a new, "historic" interior -- that is, an interior that looks to be original, but is actually a collection of building artifacts applied in non-original locations over new construction. Likewise, interior trim for new walls should generally be of the same type and proportion as the original trim, but should not duplicate it exactly, unless the original trim is relatively plain.

INSULATION AND ATTIC VENTILATION

Eligibility: Most types of insulation are not eligible for the tax credit; however, all proposals to install insulation will be evaluated to ensure that they will not result in visual or moisture damage to the house.. Some types of insulation qualify for the tax credit. Attic ventilation qualifies for the credit, but must not diminish the historical qualities of your house. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Depending on the type of insulation to be installed, photographs of affected interior spaces or portions of the exterior Narrative: ( ) Describe the types of insulation to be installed and the methods of installation ( ) Describe what kind of vapor barrier, if any, is to be installed. ( ) If attic vents are to be added, describe the kinds of vents and their locations. Attic insulation. Owners are encouraged to install attic insulation; however, the cost of this work does not qualify for the tax credit. Wall insulation. We discourage blowing insulation into cavity walls because it can lead to moisture damage. If you plan to install blown-in insulation, we will need to know if a vapor barrier exists . If you plan to open up a wall cavity during construction, we suggest strongly that you install an adequate vapor barrier. Insulation applied to the inside surfaces of exterior walls, will not be approved when decorative interior features will be destroyed or covered over. This work may be approved if the original decoration is reinstalled in original locations on the insulated walls. Application of insulation over exterior wall surfaces does not meet program standards except, in some cases, on rear facades or below ground. Roof-top insulation on flat roofs qualifies for the tax credits, and is acceptable if it does not substantially change the dimensions of the cornice. Typically, rigid roof-top insulation is tapered at the cornice to avoid any changes in dimensions. Roof-top insulation on sloped roofs also qualifies for the tax credit but, to be acceptable, it cannot increase the dimensions of the cornice, particularly on the ends of roof gables. Attic ventilation: The use of shingle-over ridge vents, soffit vents, and mushroom vents applied to portions of the roof not visible from public rights of way are generally acceptable. Triangular gable vents, standing metal ridge vents, and ventilating systems visible to the public are generally not acceptable. Mushroom vents should be painted to match the adjacent roof color.

CHANGES IN ROOM FINISHES

Eligibility: Work performed in this area is not eligible for the tax credit; however, it must be described in the Part 2 application. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Representative photos of rooms affected by the change Narrative: ( ) Describe the new finishes Walls. Most types of wall treatments are acceptable. In primary spaces, we are likely to question the covering over of original decoration (such as stenciling), the removal of plaster or wooden decorative features (such as cornices or wainscoting), the installation of wood paneling, or the application of textured wall paints on original plaster. Floors. You should avoid removing or permanently damaging decorative flooring or hardwood floors in good condition; otherwise, most types of treatments are allowable. Ceilings. Suspended ceilings should not be installed in primary spaces.

11
INSTALLATION OF NEW ELECTRICAL WIRING, AND PLUMBING
Eligibility: Installation or repair of electrical wiring and plumbing lines qualifies for the tax credit. Electrical and plumbing fixtures are not eligible for the tax credit. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Photograph the situation to be corrected as best you can ( ) If work will have an effect on interior features, send clear photos of those features Narrative ( ) Give a brief description of the work. No special narrative is necessary unless project will have an effect on interior features or finishes Replacement of electrical wiring and plumbing is nearly always approved. If the rewiring or plumbing will have an effect on interior features, it should be described as indicated in the above sections.

INSTALLATION OF NEW MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

Eligibility: Work performed in this area, including related work such as water heater and water softener replacement qualifies you for the tax credit. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Photos of the existing boiler, furnace, or other device to be replaced. ( ) If applicable, the proposed location of the cooling condenser or unit air conditioner Narrative: ( ) Indicate whether the heat distribution system will be altered and, if so, how Heating systems. In most cases, furnace or boiler replacement will have no effect on the historic qualities of a rehabilitated building, unless the heat distribution system is changed. If, for example, an existing steam heating system is to be replaced by a new forced-air system, the changes necessary to install heating ducts may be of concern. These changes should be explained in terms of their effects on room finishes and features, as described above. Air conditioning, including heat pumps. Installation of new mechanical cooling systems or heat pumps requires additional documentation. The location of the condenser is an important consideration and should be indicated in the application. Condensers should not be installed in visible locations on roofs. Ground level condensers should not be visible from public rights-of-way. Unit (window-type) air conditioners. The cost of unit air conditioners is not an eligible expense. If you plan to install these, the Standards do not allow sleeve holes to be cut into walls visible to the public. Similarly, windows on visible facades may not be blocked in to receive air conditioner sleeves.

If the plumbing or electrical work involves removal of some finish materials, such as plaster, drywall, or wood trim, you should be able to include repair or replacement of the damaged materials as part of the eligible tax credit project. Each project will be examined on a case-by-case basis to ensure that any decorative interior work is part of, and incidental to, the plumbing and electrical work.

12
SITE WORK
EXCAVATION
Eligibility: Excavation to uncover building materials so they can be repaired is eligible for the tax credits; other site excavation is not. All excavation work must be described in the Part 2 application.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) The area of the site to be excavated Narrative or drawings: ( ) Describe the site work in application ( ) If digging is extensive, send site drawings or sketches showing where it will take place.

Landscape plantings. New plantings are almost always acceptable unless they change the character of site or are located so close to historic buildings that they may cause water damage by not allowing building materials to dry out. Removal of plantings is not a problem unless the historic character of the site will be affected. (e.g., clear-cutting a historically wooded site.) Parking and driveways. New parking areas are usually acceptable if they are located at the rear of the site and out of public view. In most cases, parking areas should not abut historic buildings, for reasons of historical integrity and to prevent potential water drainage problems. Where driveways exist and are important site features, they should be maintained in their original locations. Sidewalks and walkways. Sidewalks and walkways in visible locations, such as the front of a house, should maintain traditional shapes and paving materials. For example, a curving, brick-paved front walkway would likely not be appropriate for a Prairie-style house. A greater variety of nontraditional paving materials and designs can be usually be used at the rear of a property. Patios and decks. Surface-level patios and raised decks are not appropriate at the fronts of historic houses, unless they were part of an original design. Raised decks should be limited to areas of little or no visibility from public rights of way.

When carrying out excavation, please note that you must stop work immediately and contact the appropriate offices if: 1) you discover archeological materials; or 2) you uncover any suspected human burials. Treatment of archeological materials. The term "archeological materials" is used to denote any prehistoric or historic archeological deposits or features that may exist. These include not only burial sites and effigy mounds, but also a wide variety of prehistoric habitation sites, deposits of historic and prehistoric artifacts, cemeteries, rock art, and cave sites. You will not be required to perform an archeological investigation unless your site contains known archeological materials and you are likely to disturb them. If, however, you discover archeological materials as you carry out the work, you must cease work immediately and contact the Society at 608-264-6496. Discovery of human remains. If human remains are discovered, state law requires that you cease work immediately and contact the Society at 608-264-6503 or 1800-342-7834. Persons who fail to report burial disturbances are subject to fines and prosecution.

DEMOLITION OF EXISTING BUILDINGS, INCLUDING THOSE ON ADJACENT LOTS

Eligibility: Building demolition is not eligible for the tax credit; however, it must be described in the Part 2 application.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Views of the exterior of the building to be demolished from all sides Narrative: ( ) Discussion of the building's original use ( ) Provide the buildings date of construction

REGRADING, LANDSCAPING, AND CONSTRUCTION OF SIDEWALKS AND PARKING AREAS

Eligibility: This work is not eligible for the tax credit; however, it must be described in the Part 2 application.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Photographs: ( ) Shots of the site and surrounding area from at least two different angles Drawings: ( ) Site plans or sketches showing the changes that you plan to make.

Regrading. You should not change the ground level near your house, except for relatively minor changes to promote better drainage. Regrading away from the house is usually allowed unless it: 1) changes the historic character of the site; or 2) creates chronic water drainage problems that may affect the historic buildings.

Buildings on, or adjacent to, the site of a historic building may be demolished if they do not contribute to the significance of the historic building or its context. On the other hand, just because a building or addition is not original to a property does not always mean that it can be removed; it may still be historically significant. Evidence of whether a building is historically significant is often found in the National Register or State Register nomination for the property or district. You must indicate clearly in your tax credit application any plans to demolish structures on your property.
